Or how about this one www.rctopia.com/tips/bodypins

 

[SaVaGeR21]

i never saw that one but thats a good one. it looks like it would work well

 

[bmoc2008]

Yea it does you may try it if you want.

The chain one looks like a good one. I think using fishing line instead of chain might be better though.

The one that uses fuel tubing also works well on the fuel tank cap. I did it on all my Nitros. Makes it a little easier to open the cap and looks good too.

 

[bmoc2008]

Yea I have those on my tanks too.

That is bad where did you find that?

Got them from my LHS today, come in a set of 2, and in a variety of colors, $3.95 for a set, Dubro Racing parts (p/n 2248), also comes with about 8 extra body clips.

 

[bmoc2008]

Thats awesome

 

[Road Rage]

I really like them, and don't have to worry about scratches, my clips already pull out easy enough but still stay in place when attatched

 

[robmob]

Now thats a good idea.

Gotta get me some.

Glad you like 'em robmob, I plan to use these on my new body as well, not sure which body I want to get just yet though, I know my wife is going to get the 50's panel truck for me on my b-day.

These are made by Dubro Racing part number 2248, Body-Klip Retainer, cost at my LHS (Hobby Town USA) is $3.95, they come in a set of 2, and have 8 extra clips included, come in a variety of colors.

ok thanks roadrage. i might have to pick some up cause i always lose my clips when i take my body off. haha

 

[Road Rage]

LOL no prob Vince, I think you'll really like 'em, I wouldn't use these to pull the clips off the posts though, my clips are loose enough I can pull them with my fingers, but still fit snug enough that they don't fall off the post while I'm out bashing.
