|  Which is the best 2.2 body for rollover recovery
Hi everyone. I am using a JConcept Gate crusher body for the sportman rig, they horrible for roll over recovery. They have flat top.   Just checking what is the best body for recovery? Xciter, harline, VW Bug (I have that too, will use on the next chassis)? David. |

I have the bug body and its good but I would say exciter. Its got round edges and in order for the bug to be really good, You have to have your body mount wayy back on the body which usually means its long which compromises strength. body mounts on the exciter have a lot more options and still while being out of the way. I'm definitely getting the exciter for my next body  Hope I helped

I have very good luck with the stock XR10 body. I dont think there was ever a time I couldnt recover it. With that said, Im sure the bug is easier yet, or even the exciter. I just dont like how wide the bug looks to me |

A Proline Baja Bug has been my Comp body as of late. Lowered it and ran into issues. It hits the servo now I am running a axle battery/servo mount. Effects the suspension. Last comp I ran a Lossi Night Crawler body cut short at the front (still legal in length though). Roll over recovery now sucks. I will be changing back to my Bug body soon. Just need to keep it from messing with the suspension.
