Quick trick i figured out last night, well tonight, if you can't find any body clips on an axial, with the side posts, just use a rubber band, you can stretch it between the two body posts on the side, and in an emergency, will get you back on the rocks without having to dig in your box for a lil clip.
 
good tip alpine, mine clips always vanish for some strange reason.
 
Another good tip, throw thos axial clips away. They are small, and really hard to work with. Get some larger 10th scale clips, and you can remove them easily with your finger tips or pulls.

Alpine, you are "Mr. you attach your body clips to the body." So I'm curious, how did you lose them?
 
actually thats what I've been using was the extra's from my max but no matter wich direction i face them i end up losing atleast one every crawl session.

A: Running the comp i was using your body.
B: just got the new Losi body, and havent attached yet.
 
Yeah I had a pocket full of extra clips at the comp, and I still managed to find all my clips, even after taking them out and setting them in the grass numerous times. Now if I wouldn't have had spares, I would have lost every last one. Anyway, good tip alpine, I was just givin you a hard time. You should look into the pro-line body clip holders before you poke one of those big holes in each side of your new body. I think they require a much smaller hole than the other way you had them at the comp. Your hobby shop probably has them for a few bucks. I know mine does, and they don't have a big inventory at all.
 
Yea, i just did that ghetto @$$ rig on the stock body, cuz i really dont give a damn about it.
