If you are referring to the truck I built with the LWB chassis, that actually wasn't a stock Granite body. It was actually a cheap eBay MT body that I picked up. It does look short on that truck though. The beetle body fits better on the LWB trucks, because it's actually for the Slash. The pic is that same body, in black and blue, on my Traxxas Fiesta Rally, which is pretty much a LCG Slash 4X4 (mine has Traxxas Sledgehammer's on it). The 17MM kit is a cheap one I found on eBay (I buy a lot of my RC stuff through eBay, because I don't have a LHS, and eBay is just easier for me. I try to buy as much as I can from A-Main through their eBay store). https://ebay.io/m/o2SeGV

This is the link for who I get the beetle bodies from (they also sell bodies that fit the Granite and Stampede).

Same bodies are sold on amazon by summitlink. Couple bucks more. I bought a slash and rustler pre painted body from summitlink. No complaints. I suspect they’re not made of pc but rather something “other than pc”, LOL.
I hate painting bodies myself so these were an easy choice.
I put the slash body on my SCT410. Actually fits perfectly, no rubbing!
