Is this possible?

[RedDevil210]

I would like to give a Pick-up body on my X-cellerator. It should look like the one for the savage or t-maxx. Now i want to know if somebody has done it. If yes, can you show me pics of it? What i have to do to mount such a body? Which bodys can I use, that have the right wheelbase and so? I am searching for a clear body!
I hope that there are people here, who can help me!

go here http://www.prolineracing.com/proline/bodies/truck_body.html a T4 body would probably work. All of these are clear.

Thanks for you link. But this isn't what i am looking for. I search a pick up body, not this stadium staff.
Does the body of a nitro rustler also match on the x-cellerator? The picture shows the only stadium truck body that i like, can i use this?

By the time you trim a pickup body to fit a buggies stock mounting locations, you wont have much of a lid left... Nice idea, but.... ahhhh..... NO... lol

Any body will work on anything,the overlap and hanging pieces are what get's yeah.

@mudbogginredneck: Is this your car? Looks great! What body did you use? Is it difficult to mount? How long did it take to modifie this body?

The best way to mount a body like that is to get a new set of body post.
make sure oyu get the correct size http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0097p?MANUFACTURER=PAR&FVSEARCH=BODY+POST++

Then buy the body you want to fit If I was you I would measure from wheel to wheel and then find a body with the same wheel base . This will make it look a little better on there.

hey thanks red. yeh it was mine but i traded it a few months ago. it is a maxx size f-150. i was at the lhs and wonted a different lid and i dont like the "stadium" lids. it wasn't difficult to mount or modify. all i had to do was use the drimel make holes for the shock towers to stick threw and of course the body mount holes.

thanks,
