Ok, I have decided that the stock MGT body is the toughest truck body that I have ever used. On my first MGT, I am still using the same body. hahaha.

When i still had a tmaxx, I used to trash bodies in 2 bash sessions. That was not fun.

Now that I have a Savage... I am in search of the toughest possible body. I am just wondering of all the different bodies you all have used.. which lasted the longest.. took the most punishment.. you know.. all that good stuff.

Right now, I still have the brand new stock savage body.. a pretty new Dukes of Hazzard style General Lee that a friend gave me.. a beat up and painted flaked suburban (way beyond repair) and a stock tmaxx 2.5 body (another one that has been retired).

I need a good bash body.

thanks,
adrian

Oh, I forgot to add.. so far, my favorite body for the Savage has been the H2 body.. but it needs to be retired as well. I have put a lot of ductape on it to keep it semi-solid and useable. The problem is I have a tendancy to land it bad.. and damage it a lot.

Post any truck bodies.. but I am looking for Savage/Tmaxx sized bodies. Not the big MGT/LST style.

H1 urban with all the corners/edges shoe goed up, still going strong after 7 months not a single crack in it and the way I drive/crash Ifeel thats pretty impressive seeing a cp lasted 20 minutes.

I used to have that proline f350 body.. but it was a long time ago. That one was definately not .60 lexan.. They must have a new one.

For a really strong bashing body, I like XXX Main Sic Duty truck body. Its .60 and has great strength in all the tight areas. No need for shoe goo.

this is a good one its not pretty but it works good for bashin just take a strong body that fits good cover it in duct tape several layers is good. it isnt pretty but it is good for bashin.
