Pede body on TRX4 Sport
 
Just wondering if anyone has done this and made it look good?

I put a Ford Raptor body on my trx 4 I built.
I cut the chassis rails to tuck out of the way. It really reduced the weight up high and definitely makes it look more monster truckish. Running a HW 1080 and HH crawlmaster. Running 2.2 Vanquish methods with 1.9 Pro-Line Flat Iron XL'S and Savox 1270TG servo. Thinking about putting a castle slate combo or HW Axe system. I have a slate combo in my bomber and love it, but it's too much for the TRX4 lol

Anyway trying to figure out how to post pictures from my phone so I can show you all how my little truck is shaping up for a lightweight crawler(90%) and trailing with the gf's kid the other part of the time.

You put a stampede body on the sport? If so I was just thinking the exact same thing the other day when I got finished with the kit and sold off the body, body accessories, rack, rack accessories and wheels and tires. I only ended up buying the main part of the kit for 130$ after selling everything else lol.

Ya I took it out for its maiden voyage with the new body and chassis rails cut today. It performs much much better! The bomber will still complete many more lines but it definitely is much better than with that big stock body and bumpers. I'm not much of a scaler guy so it doesn't both me any but if you're going for that look this is definitely not it. I also ripped one of my Flat Iron XL some how out in the yard in the previous pictures. I'm not sure how, I'm disappointed in them. So I swapped over to some 2.2 mud singers I had. They aren't the best crawler tires hut didn't do too bad!

I don't, maybe I can get some tomorrow. That's the worst part of it right now though as there is nothing there. I'm surgery going to do some coming work and use the original or start hunting an aftermarket that will look better with the smaller body.
