What sizes should i look for?

[savage25matt]

I am looking for a new lid, or three.... and I was wondering what sizes I should look for... I.E. 200mm 225mm etc...

I know you can probably fit bodies not mad for savage on it, but being a noob, I figured id as the question...

more specifically will this fit?

what savage do you have? extended chassis or just a standard?

sorry- its a savage .25 old school joint

I'd say that body would be too small. It'a for 1/10 scale touring cars. Savage is 1/8 scale. Pretty much any of these pictured on the savage will fit yours:

Also Proline makes awesome bodies, the ones that say, "E-REVO, REVO 3.3 & MGT" are for longer trucks but may fit. The others say 'savage' in the description:

thanks for the help guys!

Yeah some 1/10 scale stuff does fit but I would think that some of the touring car stuff may be a little small though. Here is an example of a 1/10 scale body on my Savage XL. It's meant for short course trucks like the Traxxass Slash and HPI Blitz though, not touring cars.

that is a sweet body

 

[MikeK1981]

Thanks man! I think it worked out pretty well. It also fits the standard length trucks very well. It's a bit short on the XL but I acually kinda like the way it looks on it better. It would look killer on a LCG truck too.

That's a good looking body, I guess thr right answer is, it probably can fit if you really want it to, but might not look right.

 

[nitroguy]

now you got it

 

[MikeK1981]

One good way to look at it, is if you know the dimensions of a body that does fit, you can compare it to that and figure out in your head if it will look right.
