I need to replace the body for my earthquake 8e, since I smashed it up while having a blast with this awesome truck. I was gonna try a diff body, any suggestions?

you need to look at other bodies for 1/8 scale trucks.

i have a tmaxx body on mine. had to trim up the wheel wells alot, but works good.

maybe a flux body, or emaxx body. you can also make a adapter plate to raise the body mounts if needed.

Thanks. Ill look into those mentioned. Thanks for replying back so soon.

I know this may be a dumb question, but..

would a 3.0 or 3.5 body fit?

yes, as the chassis is the same. the 3.0 and 3.5 refer to the motor size. so, both trucks used the same body.

Thanks again.

Urc hobby sells extended body mounts, i think they are off a exceed or somthing

I own one of these (plus a brushless Earthquake), its a durable body.

I found a new body on ebay. Paid about the same that redcats site offered, but lower shipping. LOL

I also upgraded the steering servo today. I replaced the stock on with a Futaba s3001. I am impressed with te response when I steer. This is a great truck.

Wow, that body looks awesome. Imay have to buy one. Thanks and sorry for the late replies.
