The bulge at the bottom is an easy fix as I noted on the other forum. Trim the body mounting posts some and it will not be an issue. As for the lens issue, I have contacted a couple people to see what can be done as far as modifying them to fit better. This is the curve issue that is being mentioned. The above picture shows the mounts that need to be trimmed to get the body to fit properly. |

Wow, I've been eyeing this kit....but wth? Quality, fit and finish should improve over time. The fix for this is pretty easy, but I expect QC to catch this kinda stuff. Last edited by Natedog; 10-12-2015 at 06:18 PM. |

No one has seen the RTR versions with the new body yet. I don't believe they are due out for a while.

My Taillights stick out much more on the new TF2 than they do on the old TF2... the orange one is the older model and the brown one is the newer. I even switched the lens and same result...

I think th3 problem with the body is to much curved in You need to glue something under to keep it open a bit |

Could be, I didn't notice much problem mounting the body to the chassis, but I installed a body lift kit upside down to lower it instead. I wish I had noticed the light issue before I had painted it, it would have been easy to fix.

Wow this is terrible! RC4WD has lost many customers due to the lack of inventory, lack of customer service, and lack of quality control. I thought they were trying to get things under control. This is just inexcusable! Don't hold your breath. |

Man that's a bummer! The TF2 has been OOS for a while and now that it's finally back they have issues.. I hope they get it sorted quickly.
