just started assembling my alloy monster, and the current body just looks silly...the FLM extended chassis makes it too long...anyone know of a good strong body that fits better/looks good on the longer rigs??

LST size bodies are longer and look good on extended savages. Here is a proline LST F-650 on a 2 inch extended chassis.

the proline crowd pleaser 2.0 for the lst fits perfect on my extended savage,and gives it a little more width too,glad i went with that one i was tired of my rear shocks hanging out the back

I don't care for the crowd pleaser though...not sure what direction I'm gonna go with it now...

i use the grave robber by hpi it says it fits all savages so it should fit yours if it fits the xl. it fits my savy x46 and rides right between bumpers could be lil shorter for mine and still look right so its a long body and youll be amazed at how durable it is very strong with the curved edges. heres a few pics so you can see how it fits stock tvp's good luck happy bashn
