Frumpy! I have the FH and I looked up the part on the website. I believe it is called the "Sid Body Mount Set." Since they are both about the same, here is the DuraTrax part number.

DTXC6561 SIDE BODY MOUNT SET

Again, they didn't have any pics but I am sure if you call durtrax they could tell you.

Hope it helps,

Paul

The come in pairs, one of each side. Still not exactly cheap for those plastic things, but a lot better than $19.00 each.

In order to mount that body you will need to start with FG part # 6203. It is the body undertray that mounts to the chassis so that it will hold the Beetle body.[link]http://www.molzermoweryracing.com/download/marderbeetlepajero.pdf[/link]

Thanks Hellya, I was just trying to help.
Just out of curiosity, couldn't you just drill new holes for the body mount pegs? They just pop in, so I guess it is possible. I ask in case i would want to put a different body on.

Thanks,

Paul

Damn[:@]Those under trays are expensive @ over $100 bucks a pop it's time to go another route[]Any suggestions?I do like the asgard ST body.Can I use the single front long mount and the leopard side mounts?I work in the machine tool field and make some of my own alloy parts when I can.I've already made the front long mount and mounting plate I think I can make some side mounts.I just need to know how far out the hole is for the body clip from the edge of the chassis. Anyone with a leopard out there can you get this dimention to me?Would be greatly appreciated[sm=thumbup.gif]

The leopard chassis is not the same as the marder chassis so the measurements would not be accurate to compare to your firehammer chassis.

I think I'll just forget about a different body and spring for a tuned pipe instead.At least I know it will fit and I'll alter the hammer body for that!![sm=spinnyeyes.gif][sm=thumbup.gif]
