Jetlag2222 Stampede 4x4 Body mod

Do you like the new Stampede 4x4, but wish the body wasn't jacked up so high and crazy? Well you aren't alone. I have received many comments to that effect, and I don't like it either. So this is a quick and easy mod you can do to bring the body down to a normal height and turn the the truck into what I like to call... Mini E-MAXX. Enjoy. :)

So you have to buy 4 battery tray kits just for those post that's like $30

[jetlag2222]

No, actually you can do it for a lot less... read some of the below comments. Several viewers mentioned part numbers that will give you the posts for only a few bucks. :)

This is a great mod!! How would it look with 17mm adapters and tech 5 wheels could you try this out please?

[jetlag2222]

That sounds like a great idea.. maybe I will try it out sometime. :)

Sweet idea. Nice work, Jetlag2222!

Two thoughts for you and your viewers to consider...

1- you can order two rustler battery hold-down kits for $3 each, which each include 2 of the posts. traxxas part 3727

2- instead of hunting for bolts, you can just use the stock body mount spacers as your "bolt".

I agree - it makes the truck look WAY better.

Thanks for all of your awesome videos!!

call traxxas and they will send u 4 of em. There costomer support is awesome!

[tacticalteck2312]

wow the stampede actually looks good that high body is what stoped me from buying it awsome job

[traxxasrcs100]

@jetlag2222 you can just buy rustler battery hold down and they are 3 dollar a pice and one pack comes with tow of those so you can buy 2 packs for 6 dollars and you will have 4 of the posts for 6 dollar but you have to buy the hex nuts seprate so thats like 10 dollars for everything you need to do the mod!
