Jato body on an E-Maxx?
 

I am currently looking for a body for one of my E-Maxxs and was wondering if the Jato body would fit on one.
Anyone had any experience with this or know of someone that has tried it. What about the rims, would they fit? They kinda look small.
Thanks.

Don't know about the rims, but the body is a little short on the Revo, not sure about the E-maxx

I think crazy is right. The jato body will be a little short.

I've got both a Jato and an E-Maxx at home. I'll put the Jato body on the E-Maxx and take a couple pictures later.

That would be appreciated Batfish.
Thanks

I got a little carried away with this one :)

Here's what you'll see in the pics below:

I actually think it would look pretty cool with a Jato body mounted on it.
The MGT body on it reminds me of clown shoes :)

p.s.-> The E-Maxx is for sale, so PM me if you're interested. Just thought I'd sneak that in there :)

what shocks are those?

Team Bluestar threaded aluminum shocks.

Looks like it might fit right. On the revo the problem is the body posts are too far apart

Thanks Batfish for taking the time to do that. That was interesting seeing all those different bodys on an E-Maxx.:D
I looks like it might fit. Do you think if the roll cage wasn't there it would fit?

Not really, don't think it's wide enough.

Man...now I gotta take the roll cage off? :)
I'll do that on Friday - racing tonight. :)

Good luck tonight.
I didn't meen for you to take it off. I know what a pain those can be sometimes. Maybe if you could just eyeball it or something.:D

Thanks!

It's actually pretty easy to take off. VGRacing made it so it is held on by the front and rear bumpers so all I have to do is remove a few screws in the bumpers to remove the roll cage. I don't have body posts mounted, however, so we'll see how it looks after the cage is removed :)
The bodies will definitely sit low.

Cool! Low is what I need.
Thanks

Here they are. Keep in mind that I have the RPM towers with no body posts mounted. The Jato body is resting on the top of the towers.
I think it looks very cool :)

As you can see, if you can mount the body that low you can even pull the sides out to cover the battery trays :)

Wanted to add, in case you didn't know, that is a Traxxas stock Jato body; it's just the clear one you can buy and paint yourself, so it's already cut out and the post holes drilled, etc...

Where can I get the moster sticker? That is cool. The body is a touch short but looks decent.

You da man Batfish. I think I found my next body.
I appreciate you doing that.
Thanks!

I got the decals from Mike when I met up with him at Monster Madness a couple months ago. I believe he's looking into making more, and I'll check into that as well.
If I get some solid news about it we'll get a new thread started.


JOHNNYMAXXIMA - You're welcome. It's fun just doing "little" things like that too! :)

As i said, on the revo the bodyposts are too far apart or i woul dhave one on my revo
