how about some body off shots.... and while we're on the subject of body, how about lowering the body a little.... i know its a trend here on RCC but everything looks better with the body dropped down low.

i agree the TXT-1 is a sweet truck, but everyone seems to jack up the body and makes the whole truck look unproportional

If you have anything between the body and the little nub next to the body post itself, (at the bottom of the post), then remove it. To get it lower than that, mount the body post supports lower (trapezoid-shaped things) like Dirk did in the Top10 article (PIC) Or remove the body posts from the supports and secure them to the frame like THIS. |

most of the plastic I would say. Mount your battery low in the chassis by the tranny. Ditch the canti's and mount the shocks on the axles, etc..
