Trail Tip Tuesday: Installing Gatekeeper Interior in the Ecto body

The Ecto body is a great choice for any class-2 or class-3 comp rig. It’s narrow, lightweight, and looks cool. (Depending on the offset of your wheels, it may not qualify for class-2 competition.) The polycarbonate body may not gain you a ton of scale points, but the addition of a lightweight interior will help. Whether or not you are competing, the addition of an interior can put the final touches on any rig. The interior from the Gatekeeper is a perfect fit for the Ecto and can also be used in other bodies as well with a few minor adjustments.

I need to find something to fit my Trailrunner. Still great video and love seeing these every week.

I have used this interior in a Cliffhanger body and with an extension to the rear added in a Mon-Tech Mont-Rock body. It fit well in both.

Good timing. I’m planning an Ecto build right now. I was going to use a Bomber interior but will now consider the Gate Keeper. I’ve use the Axial JLU interior in a lot of builds. That’s what I put in my Sendero HD and Trailwalker. Just cut off the back seat as needed. The downside of the JLU interior is that you have to buy the interior lexan, driver head, and steering wheel parts separately, but you are not limited to a race car driver. The Gate Keeper interior is the most cost effective option as the helmets are included.
