1/8 buggy body fit guide
lets start a guide of what 1/8 bodies will work on different chassis.
I think about this a lot and I think it would help out a lot of people if we were to collectivly pool information.
width is usually the biggest factor. most everything else can be trimmed to work
ill start with the few I know.
Body dimensions:
hot bodies Ve8 body is 5 1/2" wide
losi 8ight-E body is 7 3/4" at the front 5 1/2" wide at the rear but can be stretched a bit
chassis dimensions:
hot bodies ve8 chassis is 5 1/2" wode
hot bodies D8 chassis is 7 3/4" wide
Compatability:
losi 8ight bodies will fit all tekno V4 chassis
FTW tekno v4 body will fit a hot bodies Ve8 with a bit of velcro
a few specific ones I am looking for are widths of the associated RC8Be and kyosho MP9e
post em up!

Just got a new proline bulldog for rc8.2e I think it is right at 7 3/4 at its widest point. I am actually using it on a older Xray XB8-EC that I converted to brushless. Fits perfect, onlly difference is the front area needs to be left a little long because the xrays front mount real close to the front tower.

The bullydog nitro rc8.2 fits the rc8be. It doesn't have much clearance for the batteries though.

Losi 8ight-E Stock body will fit a Tekno V4 VE8 with Velcro, of course.

I was told in the Mp9 thread that the Rc8.2e body will fit the kyosho with roomfor batts. Just need to leave the nose on like you would the kyosho and trim to fit. If geta chance I will measure my Tki2

I have a jammin x1cr that I am converting to brushless. I've read that the body will not fit over the batteries once the conversion is complete. If this is true what body could I use?
