Default Installing Body On Scx10

I bought a bronco body for. Y scx10 deadbolt. I know how to install it on the front with the body mounts. But how do I on the back? It doesn't have an interior.

No just a regular body. It fits good but can't figure out how to mount on the back

Which SCX10 do you have? In most cases you'll probably need the below body mount set for the truck if you bought a RTR model the use the loong/tall mount.

You can make body mount posts out of 1/4 threaded rod.

Cut rod to approximate lenght. (Too long is ok)
Drill holes for the bottom body clips with a 3/16 or 1/8 inch drill bit.
File the rod flat on both sides where you drilled the holes.
Use a couple of nuts on the top part of the post to support the body.
Drill holes for upper clips and file rod. Trim the rod to length if needed.

You can round the top of the rod with a file or grinder to have a more finished look and to make it easier to put the body on.
