I am starting to get a few cracks in my body !!! does anyone know how to fix theses or at least help it from not cracking anymore !!!!!!!

Duct tape.

Duct tape !!!!! lol

I take a soldering iron and make 2 holes on either side of the crack. Then I cross-stitch it together with zip-ties. Not the prettiest, but it works. I also use Shoe Goo.

Gorilla duct tape. Probably the strongest on the market. Sounds funny but the only place you will SEE it is under the body.

i use hot melt glue gun to fix bodyshell, biggest tip is make sure is clean before you fix it. no fuel or dirt. duct tape or glue wont stick otherwise

well if you really want to fix it and don't care how long it takes......

you can fiberglass the inside of the body where the crack is.

if you want it fixed NOW use duct tape.

Clean the inside real good, then smear shoe goo around the crack, then use a peice of cloth (old rag or t shirt) rub it into the goo till it starts to soak through. put more on the top of the rag and smooth it all down. let it dry like overnight and it will hold up great. like fiberglass but flexible. If I know the weak paints in a body I'll do this prior to running it to make it last also works to repair torn out mounting holes, just let it harden then redrill the hole. don't go to crazy cuz it will add extra weight but it works awsome.

I like to put some silicon around the mounting holes works well

SHOE GOO I've heard is the best body welder but it takes at least 24 hours or so to dry.

 

[Jeremy]

Yep thats what I have been useing

If your a hard basher like myself, you might wanna look into buying some basher bodies off ebay, might get like 3 used ones for like 20 bucks..... one new body doesn;t last me even half a gallon no more...... Lots of nice double back flips tho.

[Shaun]
