MST FJ45 Sliders

Has anyone here found a set of metal sliders that works well with the FJ45 body? I've looked around a bit but there doesn't seem to be a lot of options for this particular MST body.

Never found anything to fit and ended up making my own, some thin stainless steel folded to suit and then some 5mm stainless bar4 silver soldered to that for the sliders...

Thanks. That's kind of what I figured. It's such a well done body that I'm surprised there doesn't seem to be much interest from the aftermarket companies but I guess MST isn't a huge seller in the states so there isn't a great market for parts.

Yeah, same issue here in the UK pretty much have to import everything...

I was able to make my own from some spare bits and pieces I had laying around. https://www.instagram.com/p/CR4Az4Ns0i2/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link

Thanks! I eventually decided that since the body is going on a custom chassis it would probably be easier to make something from scratch than try to modify something designed for the MST chassis.


Nice job on your aluminum work. I really like the front skid plate.
