  • It’s no secret that the Redcat Racing licensed International Scout II Body is a huge draw to the Gen8 kit, but drivers do like to customize their rigs. So in order to help you customize your Gen8 a bit easier, we’ve taken on the task of fitting aftermarket bodies to the platform. Pro-Line Racing has helped is with another body install video by providing their Ford F-250 Cab body and Half Cage for a custom install. In this video, we’ll go over some tips and tricks on how we made this body fit the truck. There will be some cutting, trimming and even some eye-balling, but when you’re done, the Pro-Line body set will look awesome on the Gen8 and should help your rig stand out on the trails with an ultimate RC scale look.

    Redcat helped me out, it just took a minute I’d say for the team to figure out the solution here and what went wrong but all is well and I’m a happy customer once again. Always love there products because I stand by what works, sense has it.

      Cool little how-to, love your channel; I just got back in the hobby after 25 years break, even broke out my vintage s-10 prerunner.
      Multiple Redcats later, I must say I'm a fan!

    The dashboard on the Axe Edition can be equipped with lights to light up the instrument cluster. Have to take dashboard out and drill 4 holes but it’s a little egg I found putting my new Axe Edition body together Redcat sent me for my new Axe Edition. Thanks Redcat will send some emails of her when done!

    Why not use magnets in the front as well? The posts work but take away from the scale look of this RedCat. Excellent ans easy mod for a nice rig!🎅

      That is not required but can be done depending on how you mount and modify the body.

      Well the outer diameter of the tire is 4.5 inches and the inner diameter is 1.9 inches. They are about 1.5 inches wide.

      Try searching for the title name - "Proline F-250 body" - we would start there.

    So has Redcat decided to send me a proper undamaged Axe Edition Scout ii body because mine came damaged. I paid $500 for this new release and don’t think it’s fair I spent $500 on it and thousands of 💵💵💵💵💵 on redcat racing upgrades and your rc’s and this is how Redcat Racing does a top paying customer not a shop business or sponsored by anyone everything I spend comes out of my own pocket. Help me out with this PLEASE!!!

    • @kravenkrawlhobby5438
      @kravenkrawlhobby5438 4 роки тому

      I want to keep my original order of the new Axe Edition, loyal to my stuff and I just want to return my body and trade for a new one. Shoogoo is not the answer here.

      @@kravenkrawlhobby5438 I get ya sorry to hear that man. IDK what kind of damage there was but there sure as hell shouldn't be any. And in case they try to send you a clear body it's a fucking pain in the ass. Cause they don't mark the damn screw holes!

    • @kravenkrawlhobby5438

      Glad someone understands brother cause it’s frustrating man. My original gen8 I have over a thousand dollars into it alone with redcat upgrades only. Not to mention the other 3 gen8’s that I’m working on building up plus my new Axe Edition on top of that. Spread the word for me brother cause I want Redcat to hear about this through the Grapevine and possibly do the right thing. Merry Christmas to you and your family brother.🎄🎁💰
