anyone know if a mini slash body can fit on a losi mini desert truck without major modifications? i dont mind modifying the body mounts, but the wheels need to line up with the wheel wells of the body and fit inside the bodies width.
i would love a mini slash, but dont have the money. and my mini desert truck is already brushless!
