- This video is geared toward people who are new to the hobby.
In this video AJ responds to the question (brought to us by a viewer to the channel) Can you put the Fiesta body on the Slash Ultimate? The answer is a resounding YES. It does fit. The issue here is parts. The stock parts to the Fiesta do fit the Slash platform, and this allows the swap to be fairly easy to achieve, mostly because the Fiesta is a Slash based RC. However, not all is smooth sailing to get the job done without using a plethora of aftermarket parts. In this video AJ shows you what he's done to get the body to fit, and he did not have to buy non-Traxxas parts to do it. Come along as we find out what had to be done to achieve this goal for our viewer.

I built one a year and some change ago the best one I’ve seen today better then Traxxas upgraded one as well I bought a fiesta brushed and put mod 1 gearing and metal center driveshaft I did all this before anyone this is a greater hobby isn’t and expensive 😂🤘🏽🏁
That looks like it was a great project! Pretty simple, yet almost completely changes the vehicle
I think so too!
Very nice and informative video, great work. I like 👍 👍 👍 👍
I just picked up a few Hoss trucks that I really want to put a Fiesta body on one of them.
Best of luck pulling that off. 😎👍
Can you do a Arrma Senton rally conversion using the Traxxas rally body lol
That's bizzare to me...
I thought the Slash 4WD LCG was EXACTLY the same as the Rally ST? I thought the only difference was the width. The Rally ST having a more narrow track width with shorter arms, driveshafts, and camber/steering links. So I could see the need to trim the wheel wells... but the body post issue...
Do you have a full rally car chassis to do a direct comparison of chassis vs chassis? I don't own a LCG 4WD. I'm more than a bit curious... because I've thought about going the other direction... turning my Rally ST into a Slash.
Could you do that? I mean if you have an actual Rally ST chassis etc... you just pullled bumpers off the Slash Ultimate. How about a conversion of putting those bumpers on the Rally ST chassis, and converting it to a Slash? Be interesting to see how all that fits and lines up with the narrower track width and Slash body etc.
Pretty sure chassis is the same the reason it doesn’t line up is caster angle 📐 of the suspension changes the wheel 🛞 base it’s probably 30 degrees on the slash extending it that quarter inch
Thank you for helping. 😎👍
Will it work for the vxl slash
I would suppose so. I do not have one in the studio to compare but Slash chassis on both.
Can a krayton 6s be converted to a talion ?
Of course. Why not?
It’s Mojave/typhon hubs and axles the dog bones and arms are the same . I forget what towers are used , shocks maybe same close enough just wait for new talion 😂 only arrma I haven’t owned myself
Chassis slightly different but really the same geometry
It can be done. There are subtle differences but the parts can be swapped out. The chassis is slimmer in the rear on the Talion but that’s not an issue. The center body support is also different but again, swappable. Sounds like a fun build to me. I hope you have fun with it. AJ
