Default Slash 4x4 bodies

I have recently DESTROYED my stick slash 4x4 body and I am in need of a new one. The next body can't be some regular old body, one requirment. It needs to be able to fit the RPM light bar, I am trying to make like a BAJA 500 truck. So can anyone help me find a slash body that I can mount the light bar on. Like I have the F250 body for racing and it won't fit on it so not all slash bodies work. Thanks for any help, Tabrown.

I run the Pro-Line F150 body on mine and love it, went a whole race season and not one crack, as well.

Horizon's search sucks monkey nuts.
well dunno if I'd go there, but I found its about as bad as RCU's search function
I wanted something a while back that they sold, and just said screw it after 5 attempts at typing inthe exact name of the RC. Kinda happy it kept me from spending money now that I look back on it. If only other searches were broken I could have saved a fortune.


Here was my slash 4X4
this is the body http://prolineracing.com/bodies/flo-tek-clear-body/
I found it cheaper elsewhere when I looked

I want to do a more scale looking truck. as in BAJA style. There is "scaler crawlers" but I want to do a scale baja truck.

something like this?
http://prolineracing.com/bodies/dese...ia-clear-body/

looks pretty close to the 1st pic I saw when I googled baja truck

also from pics I just looked up for the baja 500 the body I got isn't much different lookin if the blue fins were taken off (they are separate pieces that bolt on that are optional). The body is only a tad more rounded.

The proline or Jconcepts shell is your best bet. The stock shells dont last very long. They crack fairly easy.

I recently got the Jconcepts Ford Raptor shell for my SC10 and it's probably the best SC shell I have.

I am looking at the silverado body by proline. It's like the short course style trucks that race in the baja 500, like this:
