Default proline body question

Is there any reason this body wouldnt fit on an xl. I know it wouldn't be a perfect fit but anything can be made to fit right?

I would take the measurements from your current body and match them to the Proline body dimensions.


Proline 1972 Chevy C10 Long Bed Body

Length:
18.7" (475mm)
Width:
7.1" (180mm)
Height:
5.8" (147mm)
Wheel Base:
12.6" (320mm)

Yes. Pretty much any of the t-maxx 3.3 will fit the Flux (and Savage X for that matter).

my proline ford f650 was apparantly made for the xl but it fits great on my x 4.6... you wanna be careful with what websites tell you, best to use the measurements they give instead

Most of these 1:1 truck paint jobs are giving me ideas about how i should paint it.

I am gonna make it fit somehow.

I just think the bodystyle looks good in green.

Check out this link for sure:
