Need something smaller than a Kraton for backyard bashing and such. Looking at some used Typhons. Any 8th scale buggy would do but want to keep it in the Arrma family for parts cross-compatibility. Anyway, probably would like to plop a SC body on there somewhere down the line. The Typhon is a bit wider than the Senton, right? Will that be a problem?

It’s wider and the tower is different which won’t allow for the Senton body posts.

Don’t forget that the Kraton 4s is a 1/10 and the Typhon is a 1/8 so they really are a lot closer in size than you would think. The biggest difference being 3” width. But the aftermarket custom body market for the Kraton and Senton is well stocked, pick you up a mud buggy shell for $25!

You must have Typhon 6s, can't say enough how good that car is. Only Arrma car, that is ready for hard, realy hard stuff out of the box. I have Kraton V3 (heavily modified), Talion V4 (heavily modified), Typhon V4 and Typhon V3 converted to road speed car(XLX and 4070cm). Typhon V4 is bone stock, 20t pinion and Proline Badlands XTR, and Futaba reciever for my radio, and when I want to go out with my daughter and do stupid things I grab Typhon V4 and it's a good day every time. It is super easy to work on and durable beyond expectations.
