That said, honestly, my Losi stock body has actually been pretty impressive... any of y'all that've been forward deployed remember how crappy the "gravel" is... freaking boulders in the pathways bigger than my damn truck ;p

Well from my experience the Jconcept Ford Raptor has been the most durable. I have like 10 of them, lol, for 3 different chassis. My son also has a Raptor body for his. They have been holding up really well or held up I should say. I tried the Proline Raptor and found it to be too flimsy and tore easy. I also tried out the Hi-Flow body on my TQ SX10 SC. Great handling body just not to fond of the narrow front end. I recently got a Flo-Tek and haven't painted it yet. It's thicker than my Raptor from Proline. And last week I got the Chevy Flo-Tek. Haven't decided which chassis its going on, either SCTE or SC10. And I also just ordered the HellCat from MethodRC. It looks like it will perform well as its designed to sit low on the chassis. It's going on my SCTE. Yes I have a lot of bodies,LOL. And like them all. But it seems like Jconcepts are the most durable while the Proline bodies perform better.

The jconcepts captor x-flow. Had it for a long time now, run on my sc10 4x4 and 2wd sc10 (smell body) with 6 races every saturday night for the last 4-5 months. Body is beat ip but still works perfectly

JC bodies are much tougher but less of them are as stylish (prime exception being the Raptor), while P-L has more good-looking bodies that are flimsier. AE has the most hideous (and flimsy) stock body, and I'd say it's a toss-up between Durango and Losi for the best looking stock body. All of this, of course, is pure opinion.

My Losi SCTE body seems flimsy and cracked the rear corners off, it is also very loud on large landings. our triple is huge but the lid is very loud compared to the Flowtek.I have a JC Hi flow I have to paint.

deffinetely the proline flo tek body. I love mine
#28
I like the Desert Rat as well.The rear fender design is excellent,round opening and deep enough to allow for plenty of travel.Yeah it is an older body but it has been a tough one.

Traxxas slash body is the most durable I've used. Jconcepts truth body was really good but parachuted a little more than I liked. Jconcepts dare body is extremely durable. My daughter has beat the crap out of it and no damage at all. I recently put a jconcepts raptor body on my blitz and I hate it. You have to cut so much of the fenders to clear the tires during up travel. I have the body so high still to clear the tires that it now parachutes when it didn't have any issues with that before. The proline silverafo body looks great and is durable. Parachutes but not too bad. A few well placed holes took care of it.
