Buying Guide

Confirm scale compatibility

Match the body to your chassis scale—these selections focus on 1/18 and 1/24 fits for TRX4M and SCX24-style platforms to ensure correct mounting and proportions

Look for accessory readiness

Bodies with built-in bed racks or pre-drilled mounting points simplify installation and let you add lights or cargo without heavy modification

Verify wheelbase and mount points

Measure your chassis wheelbase and compare it to the body’s mount pattern—minor trimming is common, but large mismatches can prevent proper fit

Consider finish and paint options

Pre-painted bodies save time for younger users, while unpainted shells allow customization; assess whether the finish is durable for outdoor play
