Just got a felony That had the rear differential swapped for the infraction and the bitty design shell installed. Anyone know how to get the clips through? On the front body mounts can only see the hole on one side!
 
Post some pics it will help us give a better answer or idea. I'd guess the body post hole is too small or the body is not trimmed enough at the bottom.

Looks like the holes are big enough, is there anything under the body that it's sitting on like the shock towers? May have to raise the body posts up a hole to clear the shocks or tower and allow the body posts to come up through the body all the way. Just did the GT body for my Limitless and had that issue the rear shocks/tower were hitting the body so had to raise the rear posts a hair so it cleared them. Here's a pic through the wheel well you can kinda see the body barely clears the rear shocks and tower after I raised the posts a tiny bit.

Well the body is resting on the body mount posts but there’s no way to adjust those - I can adjust the height of the posts but not the part of the post the body rests on?

I have the Seven65 body as well. To get the front to sit right I did the following: Turn the mount that the posts sit in upside down so they slope downward instead of upward. Then use the alternate 2¾" body posts and push them through so that 2 clip holes are visible under the body post holder (see pics below). Then adjust droop screws to taste. It was still necessary to drill small clip holes 1mm above the top hole. The Arrma body posts don't get along too well with the steeper rake of the the 765 hood.
Anyways, this should position your body correctly in relation to the chassis and, more importantly, the wheels/tires. I've included a pic of how my body sits on my car so you can verify that I'm not talking bollox. To my eye the wheel cut outs follow the contour of the tire the way it's supposed to look. It is not possible to achieve this body positioning with the post holder sloping upward with the shorter body posts (believe me, I spent a good amount of time trying to get it to work so I wouldn't have to turn the post holder over when swapping bodies, but to no avail). I hope this isn't too convoluted and makes a modicum of sense.

Good luck!
