It’s looking awesome with the original body. The dry lube is awesome I have some I used in cycling that is good Finishline but any place like Lowes probably has some that’s inexpensive. The Proline 66 Chevy Body will fit that chassis but I believe you have to shorten the wheelbase by moving the links I had did it to mine but eventually used the Body for something different & left my Original Gen8 body on it. The Gen 8 never gets old & they always look good especially out on the trails. And it’s an awesome trail rig. 👍

I do love it. I mainly want t9 see how capable this platform is not incomberd by its body. It will go back to stock body eventually. It really is an awesome rig that redcat made here. And a side note imo the shocks are some of the best around. Love seeing the suspension travel/work on the trail.

You don’t want the foams to flatten on the side walls. If they do you’ll get tire roll and zero side hilling ability. I print my inserts to be very stiff on the side walls but flexible on the tread side. A better test is to put the center ring in the foam then see how they squish or conform on the tread side. I run the Baja Pros and I’m interested in how well the knock offs compare. I’ll be watching for a running video.
