my Axial scx10.2 with hardbody

[flodis]

This is my Axial scx10 and its my first Rc crawler. It started as a kit and the setup today is HW 1080, HH trail master sport 550 21T and steering a 20kg SRT servo.
Body is a injora Cherokee/Comanche truggystyle and its rolling on RC4WD rims and tires, 1.55 Irok. Is there anybody else that builds with this body? at first I did not like this style of body but now it is quite ok and I am very pleased with the "stance" I have on it enough text here's pictures

I like it
If I ever build an scx10ii, it's gonna be a honcho truck. I like the SR5 cab with a cage in the back

I like how low you have it sitting. Does it handle well?

That does sit really nice. Simple, uncluttered ,clean.

Hope you have fun with it.

for my type of beginner crawling it does, have not noticed anything bad with changing to hardbody

Awesome how’d you mount the body up front

Good job for a first crawler. Good choice. Love hard bodies.

Here is the bodymount in the front, I simply used the ones that came with the body. Just made the hole in the frame bigger and put 2 m3 from each side.

In the back I made a new bracket instead of the one with slots that came in the packet. this way makes it easier to change battery out on the trail.

 

[flodis]

forget the front brackets, I´m going magnet now. found some old bodymounts with magnet from an old drift projekt. some grinding and they were almost a perfect fit

just saw that I have some other upgrades I did not mention before. shock mounts from team raffee, yeah racing desert lizzards and not in picture motor mount in aluminium.

I want one of these bodies. They come pre-painted in a couple of options but I think I like the unpainted white "thumbsup"

 

[flodis]

Just buy it and start building things. I have been working a little on the cab and since I am liking rat/rust look a lot its not that important with sanding and a nice finnish on things.

First proper test run with hardbody on, it could be a little heavier on top but looks compensates for that

And here is a movie from the test run.
