I hope this don't piss anyone off- I want to put an Axial Deadbolt II Body on a TRX4 Sport body - has anyone done it? or is it even able to be done w/o too much problems?

Since I happen to have both, altho this is an OG SCX10 Deadbolt body which should be equivalent....

It could be done, I suppose...would need to redrill all four post holes or custom mount, and the frame length of the TRX would be kind of overkill, not to mention bumper placement...

Edit: Oh, and I'm really pissed off! :)
 
Why would this question "piss anyone off"? Are you thinking we would get upset about putting an Axial body on a TRX4? Not a problem, here is a pic of my TRX4 with an Axial Jeep XJ body.

as to upsetting any one- I had a 71 Scout with a Chevy 350 in it and talk about "purists" being upset (it ran like a champ though)- hahahaha- Thanks for the response yeah that deadbolt looks a bit "funny" on that Sport frame thanks again"thumbsup"

The beauty of this hobby is making your truck what you want. Doesn't matter what brand of body or anything else you want to put on it. Were all just having fun building and playing trucks.
 
I did the G6 Wrangler on my TRX4 Bronco. If you eliminate the inner fenders, then it’s pretty easy. You could probably mount it a little lower than I did. I wanted inner fenders so I used the narrow inner fender kit which reduced the trimming, plus the rock light mounting holes were further inboard.
