Toughest Savage XL sized bodies?

[thzero]

If you are going for a SC body, try a SC8 body; SC8 is a RC8T (truggy) with RC8B (buggy) suspension arms so it should fit and its .06 lexan. RC8T and Xl have just about the same wheelbase. Otherwise the 10th scale bodies are too small for the XL.

I'll have to see if I saved any of the pics of the XL with the SC8 body when I was trying it out on my RC8T.

I'm thinking of maybe just bagging the whole XL sized upgrade....

There is a dearth of bodies for the XL for sure. You could always go "half-way"... add the wider axles but keep it with X length; at least it'll be a bit more stable.

I'd go with an SC body. I used the Gigante on mine, and it cracked right off the bat in the front corner on of the hood - and not on a real hard hit.

I'm almost starting to think that the thinner bodies that flex more and have more give to them are actually going to last longer....

I'm painting up an SC10 body right now for the Flux, I'll take a pic of it so you can see the length. Someone else on here had a SC body on thier XL a couple months ago. They look good.

Can you give me the link of that SC body? Or pics of yours?
