Default Body clearance issues...

Ok, so I've cut as much of the new body as I am comfortable with, and I still get a decent amount of tire rub at full flex in the front and rear... Aside from chopping more of the body, the only thing I can think of to eliminate this, is use some 1.9's, which I don't want to do, get a new body more suited for crawling, cut an inch or so out of the middle of the body and glue it back together so the tires are completely outside the body upon flex, redrill the body mount holes lower on the body, which will raise the body up higher off the chassis, or get rid of this body, and use something else... and throw the $30 out the window that I spent on it.

Ideas? I can get pics for you of the body on the rig if needed.

After some contemplating, I've decided to just buy a comp body, and use this one for a 1.9 scaler.... Scott
