Prolly not. I had an extra Blackfoot extreme body laying around, so it will most likely go on it. All black. Rear shocks are on the way, need to come up with some body mounts.

BLING!!! :)

you should be able to pick up white crp body mounts. or maybe andy's truck mounts in white. i know they made the rear mount in white and black, but i can't say i've ever seen a white front.

Proline dirt paws. I have always liked them... Real gnarly lookin. I put a set on the rear of my AD2 just to play.... Not a lot of bite forward or side, but you get out in the loamy part of the track, and it would shoot a rooster tail about 6 ft long..... :lol:

You can still get the CRP mounts, but I really want something with 2 body mounts in the front instead of one. I would like to fashion something that would match the body holes that come molded into the body. I have some of the black plastic sheet, i just need to motivate myself to putting up with the odor of cutting it. (the plastic that is)

Anybody know where I can find some scripting similar to the pic below? (courtesy of timetunnel)

I just listed a (JG?) Truck Body Conversion in my BST Thread. It has places for 2 Front Mounting Holes. Take a look (see first post) and holla at me.

This is a dual body post adapter that will bolt up to the CRP front conversion mount to give 2 mount points for the body. It adds minimal height over the center single mount. If I still have one I will measure the spacing. I'm sure you could make something similar out of sheet material to adapt the CRP mount

Update... The BF extreme body has 3 holes molded into the rear, 2 on each side 1 in the middle. Just so happens the middle one lines up perfectly with the rear RC10 mount. Just need to space it up about 1/2". Need to get to work with my kydex for a front mount though.

Pics coming soon.

Updated pics, enjoy!

I ended up putting a long front shocktower with the 1.02" shocks.
