| need help mounting body
I just got a black widow chassis for my axial. my problem is I want to mount a body using posts that are vertical. I don't want to do the mounts out the side of the body because I think it may increase hangups. I know I could just run a screw thru the side of chassis and into base of mounting posts but if I do that they will still be able to move forward and back and will casue body to get all out of wack if it rolls on its roof. If anyone has any pointers or ideas please share. here is a pic of the chassis in case you are unfamilar with it. |

Get some L-profile aluminum. This way you can use the Axial body posts. What body are you mounting? |

rockstar is the body im mounting. I think I am going to drill a real small hole underneath another hole in chassis so I can run 2 screws into the post and it should keep it from spinning forward and backward. Thanks for the replies guys I appreciate the ideas. |
