body shells
They should go on easy, correct? The one I received has to be pulled with quite some force to be put on the car, and it bends the shock towers, which is what it was doing out of the box.

RE: body shells
sounds like either the holes are not drilled on the body correct or something on the car is bent. a picture is worth a thousand words bro, post a picture

RE: body shells
how could someone fit it on there without thinking something is wrong? I think they pulled a random model off the shelf, took off the top, and stuck on a new shell, with misplaced holes.
The holes are misplaced...

RE: body shells
I use car as a general term, sorry. I used the stock pics and the holes look to be about 1/4 in too short, as in they aren't forward enough in the front, compared to the photos I saw online. If I was to make my own holes, it would be one big oval shape... Yeah, I ordered the truggy, they sent the ATV configuration chassis and the single speed shell for the Mustang.

RE: body shells
sounds like a left over from the factory, lol.... i dont know the exceed model names so well so i really dont know but if needed, just make the holes a little larger to fit.

RE: body shells
when you got the vehicle... was the body on? I'm just wondering on how it was packaged in the box???? That is crazy how that was missed.

RE: body shells
I couldn't figure out who you were talking to because I just updated my avatar with a picture of my truck. Then I looked at his pics again closely... and I think you are right.

RE: body shells
the body was on. I had to pull with some force to get it on, but took it off again quickly when I saw it bending the shock towers.
No, it says RTR SuperPower.
Oh yeah. is the antenna hole supposed to be in the very top center? seems odd to me.

RE: body shells
Yeah... gotta cut holes myself. I hope Andy can get my parts sent out next week. Had to raise the posts so the body would fit on with the ATV bumper.
Yeah, this body is for the electric.
And I think today might be the maiden voyage, if all goes to plan.
