I ended using a 6" piano hinge after making an aluminum plate I cut similar to his and drilled holes to match the rear of the XJ body and it worked out great! This video was very helpful in my idea.
@@operation11charlieinc They do make a truck hard body one I'm thinking about getting one later on bud u should definitely get the Cherokee look on Amazon were I got this one 😁
Very clever solution!! 😎 I gotta go back and screenshot the hell out of it! 😲😗 If I can get my Comanche Hardbody, I might do very similar. Can't believe I missed this! I wanted to know what you came up with. Like I said, very clever. Carmine 🚂🚙
Thank you I just came up with the piece of aluminum and a couple small hinges that a had laying around And just mounted on to the rear chassis brace where the bumper would go And wallah. I just made a cardboard template are a piece of paper Before I could the aluminum I do you wanna fairly thicker piece of aluminum but not too thick because you also don't want it to bend when you lift the body. Hope all of that make sense
It really does. I'm also the "draw outside of the lines" kind of guy when it comes to building these. Just look at it, and the crap you've got lying around, until an idea hits!! 😉
Yes technically you dont have to adjust anything. I did adjust the lower and upper links forward one notch, but u don't have to. Other then that you dont have to adjust anything to have the body fit on the Chassey. hope That made sense😄👍
I'm new to RC world, I'm a Chevy guy, I'd like to put a 73' Chevy body on my Gen 8, will any 1/10 scale body fit or do I have to look into specific measurements of fender wells placement, body lenght & width etc?
I hot glued the interior underneath the hood & the side of the body to hold the interior. I also just cut a little piece so the guy's leg would slide through👍
You can use body post or any other means of mounting the body on to the chassis I don't think you can mount the whole body on Fenders because the back doesn't have any brace to mount 2 unless you make some. If you have this body it should I came with mounting brackets

@@josecanseca8979 if you want the body to line up with the wheel base of the gen8 chassis, keep in mind that you can adjust the wheel base a little bit. if you keep the wheel base to what I think is 12.3mm the cheerokee body will only sit as low as the chassis rails will allow. the lower grill, if you center the body to the wheelbase the lower part of the grill on the body will hit the frame rails in the front.

If you’re using this body isn’t it a12.3 wheelbase? If so what did you have to do to adjust length of wheelbase to make it work?

Most 12.3 body should work just keep in mind that somebody's are not as white as others
@@ozboy8144 Not as white?
@@c21aaron oops 😂 Sorry about that Not as wide
How did you mount the interior to the body? Also you figures, did you cut the legs to fit in the seat? I am doing the same one for my traxxas TRX4.
I hot glued the interior underneath the hood & the side of the body to hold the interior. I also just cut a little piece so the guy's leg would slide through👍
awsome I want this body for mine just couldent fing any body mounting it
Thanks for watching it does come with body mounts but I made my own
Where can I get a body like that?
Amazon or eBay this one is a Injora body
