Man! That new Chevy body looks great!!! I am going to have pick up one of those and do my first paint job! Thank you for sharing! !!

**Pede Pede** · 03-14-2013 02:06 AM

What bumper are you using? I just finished painting it and it rubs against my rpm bumper. Was thinking of using a p4de bumper.

And the wheels are 2.8's ? I just picked up some Masher 2.8's to try out and I snapped my rear drive shaft after about 20min of jumping. My stock gearing didnt seem to have any trouble keeping up and temps were fine.

**itsstock10** · 03-14-2013 08:25 AM

Yes 2.8 will tear thing up.........I just like to see it wheelie sometimes.........

**Zepher** · 03-14-2013 11:34 AM

What body post setup are you running?
I ordered the ford raptor true scale body and will be pickings it up today and I have trenchers as well for my slash.

**Navyweaxguy** · 03-14-2013 12:25 PM

I have the rapter body and i just use the pro-line extented posts, the short one in back and the long one in front.

**Zepher** · 03-14-2013 12:27 PM

cool thanks,
I'll grab those as well.

**Navyweaxguy** · 03-14-2013 12:28 PM

**Navyweaxguy** · 03-14-2013 12:30 PM

I wanted the Chevy body, but my shop had sold it before i got to it, so i picked up the Raptor.

**Zepher** · 03-14-2013 12:39 PM

Man, none of my shops have the proline post in stock. could you measure how tall the posts are, maybe I can find some longer stock style posts till I can get the proline ones.

I like them alot I kept losing the pins have not lost a nut yet ..............

**Pede Pede** · 03-14-2013 07:34 PM

I have those proline posts also, they seem ok and I haven't run the truck with the new body yet since I'm working on other things. The thing I do not like about the proline mounts is how flexible they are......waaaaaaay too flexible to the point I can almost bend one of the main arms 90 degrees. I know, I know, it's supposed to flex to prevent cracking or stress breaks but just too much IMO.

I just went ahead and ordered the post from amazon.

**DiggerPede** · 03-15-2013 02:56 PM

Yo bro!! I got my Chevy True Scale in Monday. I'm hoping to paint that bad boy up soon. BTW I really like the look of the body, very impressed.

Keep up the good work.

**Brutuz** · 03-15-2013 04:29 PM

Cool body

I have Black you should go dark blue ....

**Navyweaxguy** · 03-16-2013 11:21 AM

I love the mounts! I constantly lose the pins. My biggest complaint is that if I want to bash and not worry about the body I have to put the stock posts back on. It's not a big deal, I just happen to be lazy

**ImprovEverywherE** · 03-16-2013 08:35 PM

I also have the PL body mounts, like people say they are way to flexible. and i dont like when the nuts get scraped up. there only plastic with a threaded metal insert. idk i almost prefer the clips but ill use the PL ones until i get tired of them

**Zepher** · 03-16-2013 09:53 PM

I guess I'll be trimming and painting the body tomorrow. My posts arrived today, was supposed to arrive next week.

**jrmbtr** · 03-16-2013 10:11 PM

Picked up a used Raptor body like this that's already...it's en route. The windows are clear and the body is black. Any suggestions on what to put on the windows?

I like mine clear but I might try slapping some window tint on it and see how it looks.I have sum ceramic film that has lil color dont wanna go to dark

**Zepher** · 03-20-2013 01:10 PM

I painted it yesterday, looks decent. Trencher tires won't clear the wheel wells and I don't really want to raise the body or suspension up really high since I am running rear trenchers all around which makes the truck tip happy.
I really really like the look with the Trenchers though.

I had these wheels and tires from a Dominus sitting around so I put them on and clears just fine.

**bmxdude97** · 03-20-2013 07:51 PM

what are you using to hold on the body where the body clips should be?

**Fr8cture** · 03-20-2013 08:19 PM

Proline body posts with the screw caps.
