I've been looking for a Mojave type shell for my Kraton 6s BLX RTR but haven't really been able to find a desert racer type shell for it. I think the Senton shell might fit with its current dimenions, but it had me wondering if the Traxxas Slash shell would fit better since its slightly longer. I know of course i would have to do some trimming, but for science does anyone have a Traxxas Slash shell that can put it on a Kraton 6s (the non xl conversion) to see what it looks like?

Here is a Senton body on a Kraton 6s. Both of the wheel wells will rub on the tires.

Yup, that Senton one looks pretty good on it. Thats what made me curious about the Traxxas Slash body since its a bit longer.

Slash body are not longer. Same size as the Senton.

Slash body are not longer. Same size as the Senton.

Perhaps I looked at a different or older version of some Slash body, from what I see:

Senton 21 x 12 x 6
Slash 28 x 20 x 5

I don't own either of those so I cannot physically measure them. Anyone have any of the bodies on hand to measure the LxWxH ??

Where did you find those numbers?
As I said before, the Slash and Senton bodies are the same size. I have both.

I finished it about a week ago, forgot to update with pictures.

Nice!

Yup you are right. Someone from the discord posted a pic of both side by side.

Just put together a Finnisher body. First attempt, not perfect but it will get the job done. Spaz stix color shift paint mostly just looks green but sometimes I can see the purple when the lighting is just right.

Who makes the Beetle body? Looks awesome.

Thanks, yeah i really like those bodies. They are also great for self-righting on shorter wheelbase vehicles. Currently I run them on my Kraton, Notorious, and Senton.

If you search eBay for arrma bug body youll find a bunch of different paint schemes. $30 a body is good for me as I trash them really quick. Like so.......

The helicopter one is great.

The helicopter one is great.

17mm hub got so hot it melted the center of the rim clean out. I somehow find ways to break stuff that isnt supposed to break haha.

@Hoodies&Hondas - Here is one that has no holes in it. Sometimes they are hard to find without holes in them already.

I do not have the body anymore, it got trashed but was replaced with another thats similar.
