Axial scx10 Deadbolt body dimensions

[Jimbobjr]

I could not find the length or width of this body anywhere. I’d like to incorporate it in a build. This info as well as the width at the fenders would be extremely helpful. Thanks!

If you haven't received an answer before I get off work tonight I'll measure one for you.

My deadbolt is Length = 1.9cm Width = .82cm

Overall length I had to measure with my imperial dial calipers.

7.575" or so long, which is 192.4mm long

Rest are in metric. Divide by 25.4 if you wanna know imperial measurements.

Wheelbase can be found on the hobby shop sites. This is just a visual aid. Actual wheelbase - 5.25" (133.5mm). I was close lol.

I think that includes the uncut bits. Pretty sure I've found the measurements , just didnt look hard enough the first time. they are 17.5" X 6.25".
Really liking the new redcat gen9 Scout two door but its too chubby for what i want to do. Hopimg the deadbolt width will be skinny enough for my punks customs capra build. Going to try and slam the body and chop the rollcage like this.

The Deadbolt does taper off at the back. The front has a lot more clearance in the wheel arches.

But the Capra "body" is the chassis. So how are you going to put a Lexan body on it?

I built a Punks Customs chassis kit. It uses the Capra axles, links, shocks, trans and drive shafts. It really does well and I like the creep body, just might try the deadbolt on it for a different look.

Ooohhh. Ok. I was unaware of that chassis kit.
