Default using nb jeep trailcat body

Does anyone know who made the post saying they bought this 1:8 new bright trailcat to run the body on their trx4? I was finding it daily awhile back but now I cannot find it. I'm trying to buy one but it says they are no longer available. Please help me out if someone can tell me wrote posted about this or if op can respond, thanks

I saw them Saturday at my local Wal-Mart. They were saying the w/b was like 13.5in long, guess it wouldn’t be too bad with the TRX’ 12.8.

According the Walmart’s website, overall length is 12-1/2” long, which would put the wheelbase around 9” or so.

There are two versions of these trucks. An 1/8 scale and I think a 1/12 scale. The smaller one has the short wheelbase and the bigger one has the 13.5" wheelbase.

Yeah that's the one 14th version with the dash cam. I'm looking for the 1/8 version and if someone can find it I will pay them extra pay shipping or we could work out something with parts Wheels tires Electronics that whoever would help me out with this would come out on top and be happy with the deal we make. I've never searched for something like I have this thing. It's no longer available in my area or anywhere close

I'm trying to send you private messages but even after deleting 50 or so it's saying I don't have enough storage. Could you please text or call me at 423-255 4245.
I need your help and I am wanting to make it well worth your while because I've never searched this hard for something and lo and behold it's something for my toy trucks. Haha thanks Nick

I didn’t know there were 2 versions of this thing either, I’m pretty sure they were the FPV 1/14 versions unfortunately. It still looked quite large but than again I was at Walmart not a hobby shop with other models to compare. I can double check for you when I go again, but I’m 99% sure. Best of luck in your search.

Sorry man I have not been on here in a while. I bought one at the local Walmart and it's going to be a little more of a challenge and I figured but I also got the four door extra speed Jeep and that things very cool. I don't know one of them has to go though. I appreciate it check out that one that someone just sold recently they did it perfect and it's pretty awesome

Here are the pics of it. I want to message him and ask how he did it or to get a little help but I really need help understanding why erasing 50 messages hasn't cleared out enough space for me to send or receive messages. I definitely appreciate some help with that

Looks like they put it on a Yeti or something with IFS that’s in those pics. Glad you could find one though. After going to my WalMart and checking to see if it was the 1/8th scale model of it, it was not, just the small ones with the camera.
