Kraton Bodies

[James1984]

What bodies will fit the Kraton v4 6s with little modification. Would the outcast or tallian 1s fit?

It all comes down to wheelbase and vehicle width, which according to the model's webpage:

Most bodies use wheelbase as the "will it fit" measurement as most other things can be trimmed or modified with body posts somehow.

Jconcepts finnisher body fits without modifications.

One thing to keep in mind is if you want to keep the cage this will reduce your options. If not most 1/8 Truggy bodies will work. Proline has a Kraton specific body that looks really good. I like Lead Finger Racing bodies, but there are many other brands that are just as good. This is a Losi 8ight Truggy body from lfr on my Kraton, but the cage is removed.

This thread has a lot of good information in it:

The Outcast has a shorter wheelbase than the Kraton but surprisingly the bodies have the wheel wells almost the same distance apart. The big difference is that the Kraton body is open at the end whereas the Outcast body wraps around the rear shock tower.
With trimming and/or redrilling the mounting holes it’s possible to make an Outcast body fit a Kraton chassis.

For some reason I thought you meant the Kraton 4s, not the 6s V4 lol.
As geronimo said, the Jconcepts Finnisher body, and if it's the same wheelbase as the V3, pretty much any body listed for the Mugen MBx7t should fit as well with little modification.

Nice paint. Like the color combo.

LFR make body shells, this was years ago now, I don't know what they are up to now, virtually any racing truggy style body for a Losi 8 e will have a good chance of fitting, but the mounts won't line up exactly, you will have to make your own holes.

I've been looking for a UDR/Mojave/Slash type shell that would fit the Kraton 6s v5 RTR. I really love that style of body as a basher it really seems to give a good amount of protection with all that plastic covering the entire body. If anyone knows of one please let me know!

Edit: Out of curiosity, anyone have a Senton Body that can measure the length and width of that? Wonder if that would fit on a Kraton 6s (the non XL verison).
