Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? Im running the Proline 4runner im at work so no pics at the moment here is how i shortened the wb: I made 2 sets of front Lower links first set was 3/32" brass rod (which gained no weight) then I made a set out of 1/4" brass rod ( which doubled the link weight) Installed the 1/4" on the front lower. I then used the stock front lowers on the rear and the 3/32 brass on the rear upper. The uppers and lowers on the rear are the same size. but that will put you dead nuts on 12.3" i also moved the rear shock towers fwd and used the plastic piece included in the bag to keep stock mounting holes"thumbsup" |

Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? Looks great Bil! Is that the SSD bumper? |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? Thank you....yes, SSD front bumper. I have a rear bumper coming from RPP. |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? Does anyone know who bought the new bright trailcat and started the post about running the on their trx? Pretty sure it didn't work out but the frustrating thing is I was looking at the thread last night and cannot find it after looking and searching. Thanks Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk |

A couple looks I've ran.

Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? I am a Ford guy, so when I saw this body, I had to give it a shot. Proline 66 F100 for the T Maxx. I think it turned out alright. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...8db6ddc5a3.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c7d71c4060.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...8281a6ced5.jpg Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? Started off with the full Hilux body and now ended up with the axial bed cage. This is my first go around so it’s still a work in progress. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c774882c13.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...c2035f218b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...50c787167.heic Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? Looks great! Try swapping the front and rear bumper supports, keep them flipped. this will raise the front bumper/ lower the rear. This will allow you to drop the rear bed cage. Then space up your sliders. I used 2 revo ball ends stacked, and longer screws... |

Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? solo1, Where did you get the shorter suspension links to run this body? And how long are they? |

Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? Dude that looks awesome I've definitely seen Jeeps in that color IRL too. Does it have the spare on the back or are you leaving that off? |

Got any pics since you lowered the body some more? |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? Quote:
So I ended up swapping and flipping the bumper mounts. Made a huge difference in clearance also. But gave the rear section of the cage more room to come down. Also ditched the battery latch for velcro straps to allow the body to sit level. Removed some of the x bracing on the underside of the cage also. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...042c1681b.heic Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? I think the Slash body looks pretty good actually. Not the scale look most go for, but definitely functional, albeit a bit longer than most. |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? hmm. seeing the slash body on it makes me wonder how the trx-4 would look wrapped in a yeti cage setup. i just got done putting one on my slash the other day.. https://i.imgur.com/FAkK8yH.jpg |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? Quote:
Do you have some detailed pictures of where you trimmed and how you mounted the body, specifically in the rear? I just got an F100 cab and honcho cage/bed, and it's a paint in the butt to get fitted correctly. Also, what sliders are your running? |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? Axial JK Wrangler body with standard TRX4 wheelbase. Fits perfectly :) Just had to trim the inner fenders to fit the tapered profile of the Jeep body. The body is held to the chassis with rare earth ring magnets and Shoegoo. https://i.imgur.com/IZfzmOGh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/JCCgbsRh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/FLjZKRnh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/cMxeJldh.jpg https://i.imgur.com/yNPCLkzh.jpg |

Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? Those that are running the Toyota Hilux body, are you shortening the wheelbase? |

But although at first glance the revos appear to be shorter the dimensions from "bottomed out thread" to center of the ball is nearly identical. |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? 1 Attachment(s) I think ill have to give 1 of these a try soon as i can get my hands on 1 |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? ^Second the notion. Figure I'll wait and see what 3D printed goodies the market comes out with. It's begging for a printed Grill and Headlight pods. |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? That power wagon body looks sweet! |
Re: what other bodies have you guys been running? Who makes that Power Wagon body? It looks very nice |
