Order this one:
My friend and I are using them and they're much more better than the stock one.

Actualy they do.
Once, I basically messed up my earthquake 8e and had to order a body, the bodies were sold out bascially everywhere I looked. So I tried ebay. wound up buying the earthquake 3.0/3.5 body, and guess what, they were identical.
Looking back, I posted the wrong link.. this is the one:

RE: Need BS903-017
Well thats weird.... I was shipped the 3.5 body from Redcat by mistake when I ordered the 8e body and there is no way it will fit. Not to tell you that you are a wronge or nothing but the 3.5 body is shorter and wider and the 8e body is longer and thiner. So you might have got a 8e body and not a 3.5. I can post pics of both of them later after work if needed. I'm sure that with lots of cutting I could get it to fit but to me that would be a waste of time.

Right i dont have a Earthquake but I'm positive that the " Backdraft 3.5 will not fit the Backdraft 8e". Is it just me or has Redcat been out of the B8e body for awhile now? It would be cool to know when they can get them back in.

The 8e body isn't as wide but there's no way it's any longer. Look at the exploded diagrams the chassis, diffs, shock mounts, body mounts and everything else that could possibly affect the length are the same. I converted my Aftershock 8e to a buggy and used the body from my Backdraft 3.5 until the new one came. They're the same length.
I definitely like my 8e body better now that I have it because it keeps a lot more dirt out, but the 3.5 body will DEFINITELY work. I've done it.
Edit:Pics in the thread below. I've replaced the rear bumper (kept the front) with the Backdraft wing since.

I converted my earthquake 8e into a backdraft and used an 8e backdraft body. I know the earthquake bodies: 3.0/3.5/8e are the same. If I gave you a link to a wrong fitting body, I apologize, I did repost the right one. I was only helping.
One more thing toug, I love my backdraft. Handles 100 times better than when it was an earthquake.

RE: Need BS903-017
Like I said, the parts are all identical. The bodies will fit. If you're having trouble it's probably just due to the imperfect nature of lexan and maybe some stressed body mounts. Even with the original body it's never just as simple as "just put it on."
