What is an easy fit body for the Gen8 that is more scale for comps?
I am not real skilled

I've seen the scx10ii Cherokee body on one and it seems to fit. maybe the wraith spawn body would fit, more fender clearance and look good too.

I just got the Axial 67 Chevy C-10 body and its a great fit. You can also go for the Proline Jeep Camanche body that's also a good fit. No mods needed on either of these. They are nice looking and scale , plus , you get rid of the top heaviness of the Scout. Something that will help you on comps

@Gamer707b, how do you secure the body? Did you add the posts to the Gen8 chassis?

Thanks!

Yes, I added the posts. Im having a friend paint it for me , so not done yet. There's a couple Gen 8s with the same Axial 67 Cevy C-10 body I got on youtube if you want to check it out. Don't need to do much. Just put the posts in and use a reamer to make holes for the posts. You might cut a bit off the posts . Depending on how you want the body to ride.

This is a Comanche body on a Gen8 PACK.
I mounted the sliders upside down.
