F8t with pro-line bulldog body

[adrictan]

Pic?

[paulmd]

here it is. just tried to fit this body. but i had to expose the esc. will figure out a way to protect the esc fan

[adrictan]

U can use a lexan piece and cover it. Glue it on with Shoe Goo. Poke a few holes on the lexan so the fan can draw more fresh air when u run without risking water from getting in.

[adrictan]

BTW, which Proline Bulldog body is tht? mBX6t?

[paulmd]

will try that. thanks. its a d8t body

[adrictan]

It's nice. Will done! U won't want to see my bodies. They all look like crap!

[paulmd]

thanks. ive seen your f8t.. the yellow one looks good.

[rc/cc]

Nice paint job! I really like the yellow on black scheme. Or is that shadow gray? Looks good either way, imo! Stands out quite nice.

[adrictan]

Wht paint did u use? I just use Tamiya spray cans.

[paulmd]

thanks guys. i just used tamiya too. its gunmetal and fluorescent yellow.

[REAPER]

I was wondering which one of these would fit best. I have a RC8T BUlldog lid coming. I love the way they look

[Parrotman]

I like the way the body looks. The paint job is awesome. Very nice looking rig that will stand out. :)

[adrictan]

Any nice souls willing to do a paint job for me for free the next time I order a shell for my F8T?

[MADMIKE]

I think the associated ones will fit nice, I used a stock rc8t bodie on my K8t.

This body look awesome on your truggy. Very nice!

[REAPER]

Free paint???? Sure a one color rattle can paint job with no window masking. hahahaha

sorry bud.

[bring it on]

Where did you get that side sticker. I like it.

[Parrotman]

sorry bud.

LOL!

[paulmd]

got the caster sticker from a local hobby shop. its for a zx1 supposedly.

[adrictan]

Thanks for rubbing it in.. :(

[REAPER]

Ahhh, come on. just playing around....

[JRACER947]

nice job. the body looks great on the truck. i will have to try one when i get the new one.

show us a picture of your truggy , Madmike......i wonder anyone tried the RC8T Punisher body by JConcepts......:)

[MADMIKE]

This was just a stock RC8T body, but it fit so good I would think that the Bulldog or Punisher bodies for the RC8T would work good also.

[Jay_Son]

hmm I want a body to I know the mbx 6t body should fit based on how well the stock one fit with chris' rear shock tower/mount mod I have the body in my cart right now ready to send of to reaper hopefully real soon

[Justpassedu]

wow that body came out really nice , do you think it will fit a fusion ex-1 or if so will it look out of place bc its for a truggy

[Jay_Son]

no the ex-1 is to short for one and the body would be to wide would look all sorts of funky

[ochitone]

Nice looking Caster. I am thinking about getting one for my K8T

[ventdependent]

The F8T takes a mod 1 pinion right?

[REAPER]

correct

[pfontaine]

What kind of rear body mounts are you using?

[paulmd]

oh its just an old body mount from a tamiya 1/10 car.

It will fit the k8t but you have to reposition the rear body post. It will look like this.

I used the Proline body for the rc8t. It is wide enough to keep the side guards on the k8t.

[levontraut]

hi m8.

by what do you mean reposition the body post pls??

[Sein]

With the stock body, the rear body post are too high for forward cab style bodies. So, you have to drill into your shock tower to lower the rear body post so that the forward cab bodies can fit properly.

[levontraut]

do you have pics for me to have a look at for a guid line please??

cheers
levon

[Sein]

yea, i will take some.

[Sein]

Stock, the rear body post screw into the rear shock tower. I removed them and lowered them.

[Jtuepker1]

[Jtuepker1]

You can see the screws from the back side ran out of the silver washers to make it fit a little tighter.

[bring it on]

cool

[Jtuepker1]
