Default Bodies for Axial AX10

I am curious to know if a 1/6 scale body would fit/look proportionate on a 2.2 chassis... I will be starting off with a Axial AX10 and going from there. I have a great chance of picking up a 1/6 scale Jeep Grand Cherokee for a great price and would love to use it..!

You wpuld have to lengthen and widen the rig. There is nothing different about the AX10, just search the large scale section.

Your best bet for that would be Clod axles.

I am already in with 5 other guys to buy the AX10... So I guess I will have to skip this body (Shame) would have loved to have used it... I will stick with the 1/10 bodies such as LR3 / FJ Cruiser, etc. -Thanks for the info guys..!

i have e-maxx axles on my 1/6th. sure they don't look that scale but they

serve there purpose well. they are stout and easily assembled/maintained.

parts are very easy to come by. Easily locked with a spool option. turn well,

(especially with revo knucks). and i like to use the big ol 40 series tires. big

tires crawl better. plus they look better with that rig you pictured. i almost

got that one, but went with the ranger body instead. i have also seen a

Chevy Avalanche body that size aswell. not to mention, there is always the

nylint jeep body.

I haven't decided which one to buy as of yet... If I can get the bodies by themselves I will do that first...
