Default what do u think losi 8 t 1.0 with 2.0 body

so i picked up a 2.0 body cheap modified it and custon fit it to my 1.0
it was real easy took off my rear body mounts and in the bottom of my shock tower above the rear diff the body mount had to be cut down but it fit dead center of the rear of the body. had to trim a little off the rear but it worked does a 2.0 shock tower bolt up to a 1.0 diff

Did you reposition the rear body mounts somehow? I cant tell what is holding the rear of the body secure from the picture. Looks good though

Default losi body

what i did was took off the rear body mounts and each body mount had 2 holes for mounting screws. i cut the lower hole off so it only had one screw mount right obove the rear diff in the 1.0 shock tower there is a hole that i mounted it to so the rear only has one mount position in the rear dead center

You could also put the 2.0 rear body mounts on in the same manner as you have done with the 1.0 mounts, it worked great for mounting a Proline Bulldog body on mine.

Looks good to me. Looks like a 2.0 until you take the lid off
