Default RE: Aftershock Body on a Backdraft?


ORIGINAL: Chizzler



Does anyone know if I would only need the body posts and an Aftershock body to make this happen. Are the chassis similar enough in size (if not identical)?

Oh, and love the Backdraft so far. I would like to be able to switch back and forth between buggy look and stadium truck look. Thanks,

Here are some pics of the Earthquake 8e and the Backdraft 3.5 side by side and I took some pics of the suspension to show the similarities. They have identical A-Arms and shock towers. The Earthquake just has an extra piece that screws on to the shock towers for the body posts. Hope this helps you out. I did a conversion from a Vortex SS to a buggy and made a video of how to do it on youtube just search for my username on there to watch it. The great thing about Redcat is they use the same chassis for so many of the vehicles it makes it very easy to convert from one to another.
