I used a set of Scale Reflex Gorilla mounts, and an extra set of magnets to insure a clean install. Youll also need some 3M Extreme mounting tape, duck or gaff tape, as well as a pen to mark the body.

Thank you man! I was nervous about how I was gonna mount the magnets on my body. You did it the best.
Glad I could help! Have fun drifting!
Great video, thank you! I was worried about trying to figure out where to attach the magents inside but the magnets on the outside holding them in place while you trace them is brilliant
I’m glad I was able to help! I had seen a short video that kinda explained it but really wanted to make my own version of the whole process. Have a good one!
This is so sick! I can’t wait to see it in person!
My dude. I want to say thank you for making this video on how to setup magnet body posts for rc bodies. I’ve always wanted to use magnet body posts for a long time but I never how to use them. Now since I watched your video, I’ll be buying some magnet body posts for my YD2 now.
I’m really glad I could help! Thanks for watching!
Mines coming tomorrow!!! Sooooo hyped can’t wait to see what my car looks like with the body all dialed on it! 👏👏👏👏👏
Dammit I forgot the second set of magnets 😂😂😂
Oh no haha! You could for sure do it without but its a little harder haha
Brilliant, this is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you.
You’re very welcome! I made this video because I had such a hard time finding info when I went to install my body. I’m glad I can help!
This video was so cool! I learned so much watching this RC Drifting looks super fun!!! Thank you for taking the time to make this❤️
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for your help! Luckily I had the spacers I needed for the rear. I had to use shoe glue instead of tape.
Im glad it worked out! Shoe goo seems like it would work great. Thanks for watching!
This was so dope watching you build it!!! I enjoyed your techniques as it was super helpful and informative! Thank you for showing us the process and I look forward to seeing you race this bad boiii!!!
Your very welcome! I’m glad I can help! A lot of this stuff is so new and different it can be hard to find the right info.
Awesome! That thing is just strait up classy!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I appreciate it!
I appreciate these videos, thanks for posting!
@@EDChero of course! Thanks for watching! I’m glad they’re helping you out🤘🏼
For that price it should come with the 3m tape.
Your not wrong haha
informative video - thank you. Can these magnets hold for on-road racing?
The body would likely get pulled off for onroad racing. Velcro would be my personal choice for racing. With the magnet it is pretty common to bump a wall and have your body dragging half way behind you lol
Let me know when you take her out - I wanna check it out in person!
I will!
Hey. Can i use little power when i gonna lose my esc on my mst rmx 2.0? Its sit so fast. But i need to move the esc 2mm to the side to use short battery:). Nice video.
Thank you!
Really helpful. Thanks from Germany!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Super helpful , thank you
@@georgej8902 I’m glad! Appreciate it🤙🏼
Do the 3m tape last? Im always skeptic of the double sided tape power.
I’ve heard it does and It’s been holding really well on my car so far. I’ll try to do an update in a month or two. Thanks for watching!
So for the rear you have to use spacers and longer screws to raise basically?
@@TEExCASH yes that’s the best way to dial in the height. You can use all sorts of size washers to make it fit your needs.
@@SeanLewisMedia sweet, looking to get them for my RD 2.0
@@TEExCASH Nice they should work perfect👌🏼
Anyone run into an issue where the bullet magnets for the front won’t go onto the post? Or dotes anyone know what posts they will fit over?
The magnets may be different polarity and could be throwing it off. As long as they are lined up correctly they should work, but the magnets being backwards could be a problem.
It’s the bullet magnets that go over the front body mount posts it seems as if my body posts are wider then then bottom of the magnets and won’t fit into the magnets
@@jayvenwoodward4491 Ok i totally understand what your saying. Are you running an MST, if so the body post are likely to big like you said. You may need to order and use yokomo ones, or shave the ones you have down so they work for you.
@@jayvenwoodward4491if you got the mst rmx they Gave you an extra thinner set to add to those thick ones you can cut down Ann’s adjust
2:50 the metal caps with the set screws aren’t even close to fitting on the front posts of my MST2.5, the posts are way too thick to go in. Do I need a different diameter of front posts? Brand new to rc 😂
So the mst post are too big, I think you need to use yokomo post. I got lucky I started with yokomo but I forgot that my friend had the same issue. Dont worry its all a mystery when your starting! It will make sense more and more. There will always be mystery curve balls though🤣
2.58. Can i cut mine? They are to long if i gonna use magnetic
Yes forsure! Just do a small amount at a time to be safe.
@@SeanLewisMedia Thank you very much!
how can I do it without extra set of magnets?
It’s a little bit harder but you can still use some masking tape on top. Put a big piece around the area, set it on the body and get it lined up, use a light to shine underneath and then draw the circle on the masking tape you put on the outside. The flashlight or phone light will shine through the paint and you’ll be able to see where the shadow is from the post.
When you want to stick the magnets just flip the body and shine the light through from the outside so you should be able to see the lines from the tape. That works for lighter color paint.
You could also just preset all the magnets on the chassis with the 3m double sided tape then set it down slowly where it all lines up.
Hope this helps!
@@SeanLewisMedia thank you so much !!!
Your very welcome! Best of luck!
Where did you get that body?
If it lets you see this link then right here🤘🏼

Sick. I thought it was a pre painted body because of the white. It's like the RTR body's from yokomo. What paint did you spray that white with? @@SeanLewisMedia
@@mattparker510 The white body is actually a yokomo body sorry!
@@SeanLewisMedia the purple 240/180 sx is a yokomo?
No the purple one is the link i sent you, and that was a custom purple I mixed for my airbrush and then I backed it in white. im sorry I was confused, thats my bad. I backed it in white to make the purple pop more.@@mattparker510
Things are way too pricey for what they are tbh
They are pricey but they have been the only brand that holds up over time. Mine have been going strong for 6 months so its been worth the money so far. Its also one of the best solutions for the scale look of not having body post. If you know of any more budget friendly version I could for sure check them out👍🏻
WAY to overpriced.
