I couldn’t bring myself to cut the stock body. So I ordered a clear one! Gonna cut it up soon hopefully. Just haven’t had the time lol
they get a clear one? oh there's gonna be some awesome looking paint job people are gonna come up with
@@TheNamesArif yep! It’s on eBay. Only place I found it so far. Just got it in. Hoping to do some vids on it soon!
Horizon has it too, but you already got one!
@@TRKISH324 it’s funny cause when I ordered mine it wasn’t on their site. But they were the seller on eBay lol. Guess they got it added to the site now!
Done! I cut a bit higher to hide the black plastic. Then dropped in to the line like the black plastic does. Awesome idea! Thanks.
Awesome. I kinda wish I had done that as it leaves the tops of the doors.
I always reinforce my bodies with mesh sheetrock tape and shoe goo, helps prevent cracks.
Wow.. Can't believe how awesome it looks with the top off. The roll cage could use some paint. And so many options for scale accessories now.
Hot new exacto blade , clean cut smooth. Roll bar spray on bed liner
Best mod I’ve seen done to an SCX6 yet! Very sweet chop job!
Turned out great Joe!! A lot of top weight is gone and looks much better, nice work buddy👍🏼👍🏼
Was a lil worried watching 😂 . all in all worked out great and looks amazing 💪 if i were to do this id like to be able to retain the top some how . and definitely use an exacto knife . this thing looks killer with the top removed . 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for the inspiration, my 10.3 needed a makeover 👍 love the look
Love the top off. I was waiting for the top chop. Wow it was that much wait up high. Awesome up grade and looks
I would never do this, due to ruin the look of the car.. But. This actually was pretty good and better!! Well done! 👍
I was worried, one wrong cut and it could be ruined but it worked out.
I 100% agree it looks so much better, I would purchase one if they release one like this in yellow with black trim.
Hello , i love how you give each rc a good going over with mods and etc.👍 you really inject some energy into rc's. Thanks
I just came here to see all the comments complaining that you cut the window frames off of the doors . And I couldn't find any!!! Amazing!!! Lol!!
PS. I cut top one my 10.3.
Great job , looks sooo much better like that 🤜🤛
I will admit I was doubtful at the start but woohoo 😍
Woe Joe that has turned out really well, looks freakin awesome man. Great job 👌
Heck yeah looks awesome out there, I love the look, big thumbs up
It makes me think that I never even thought of it ~~ It's wonderful
looks so much better like that. especially given there's a cage hidden otherwise! nice!!!!
Great work bud. That thing looks sooo much better 👍
Literally the cleanest cut JLU I've seen good job 👏
Thank you!
✌🏻😎🏴looks dope dude 👍🏻. You’ve done a good job cutting the body, I like it 👍🏻
That onboard view is a game changer
Nice modification! Turned out awesome
Awesome job! Should’ve came like that from the factory. Looks good 👍 Makes me wanna get one now.
I was worried about it originally but it came out great!
Looks so much better 👍
Definitely an improvement. Reminds me of a Gen-1 SCX 10, the 2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon. Careful now Joe, you might want to start scratch building styrene Hard-bodies. 😁
Honestly, amazing modification of the body, and i love your video from inside the car, so great, the final touch would be to manage to have the steering wheel sync with the servo for crazy onboard video rendering . Very well done. Cheers.
Turned out nice!!!
Nice. Great creativity. If I ever get scx6 I may copy your method. Love watching your show!!
Thanks man!
BRILLIANT !! , IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN made that way ! Ya , need like a Tim McGraw head in there or Arron Rodgers 🤣
You...Are....Crazy!!! Love your videos man👍
That was outstanding dude, love the phone camera gives me great ideas, I am looking at my early bronco yeah I think you might know what I mean looks like it will work, thank you for that !! Happy trailing
This is the plan for the weekend
Looks great.
Nice job that does look better
Looks badass I think I’ll do that to mine. I’m sure it performs better as well.
Wow, nice work!
They say, no guts no glory... well welcome to the brave and beautiful 😍 BB
Dude!! This is awesome sauce! I think it's looks so much better now! I think you should dye the roll cage black, silver, or red for some added eye candy.
How you all doing 👍 cut my top off also wow 😳 what a difference in the style of the truck , great videos good luck
Looks good.
Looks great man the sliver makes it ten times better also 🤷🏻♂️👍🏼
Wow! Did you make a nice modification of the scx6?
It turned into a great open-ended off-road rccar.
awesome.👍👍👍
That looks badass. 👌
Huge performance cutting the roof help lower the center of gravity like 30%
I was doubting your decision at first lol. But I may do mine now it looks better.
I was doubting it too. LoL
It looks badass!
And thanks for your videos, I’m sure you get tired of reading that.
Lol
Looks awesome man 🔥 🔥🔥
I was wondering when someone would do this! But it looks great and takes some weight off the top..👍👏🏼 remember me saying it looked too heavy on the first drive.. I didn’t actually think the top would have weighed that much tho..this has changed my mind on this truck…
I'm thinking of taking my rollcage out and make one of hollow plastc tube and leave some sections of..because this rollcage inside the body is just for looks no protection...like the body and maybe dump the hole cage and make a hollowtube roofrack like on the Absima Yucatan or the Sherpa..want to make it look scale..
get that steering wheel turning and the cab view would be epic!
Thanks, you're changing my mind about getting one. Not good 😁👍
I just trace the cut with a razor blade two to three times and it snaps off super clean.
You live up to your name bro👏👏
Nicely done mr Exo 👊🏽✊🏽 But I would’ve use tin snips 🤣😂😅 just joshin U 🤣😂
Looks much better, you could have used your marker to go over the top of the cut, but I like the way it looks. Good Job
Very nice bro
that is exactly what i did with my SCX10iii Jurassic Park Jeep :o)
I wanted to do it to the scx10.3 but never did.
looks good
Wow looks awesome dude, be the first to do that yeah I like it
I wasn’t a fan of the scx6 mainly because it was another jeep. This though I like and would definitely consider one just to do this to it. Looks great and as always awesome video.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEA MUY GUAPO TE QUEDO FLAMANTE. GRACIAS, SALUD Y SUERTE.
They have 1/6 heads on eBay. I have Bruce Willis in mine and Schwarzenegger in the sbr 2
I normally don't like the top off versions but since I don't this jeep body anyway... yeah it looks better with top off.
Much better
About time some one does something differently..put some paint on it...peace from v&b speed
To cool. One of the things I don't like about all the new rigs is that they are just a bunch of square boxes bobbling around. Suv bodies are boring.
I drive a K-5 daily. I don't think it's a very good looking rig, but real handy.
I've always liked the Deadbolt, I cut mine down to a half cage. A lot lower grav center is always better.
As always, love your work.
Have fun
It's crazy how much that body weighs. Cut almost a pound off geez! Gotta be almost 5 lbs with the whole body and interior.
I was running my scx6 with my buddy and his scx6. He accidentally bumped the side of mine and my body busted a crack between the passenger doors about 6 inches long almost to the roof. We were disappointed as but these are pretty heavy trucks. But a 130 dollar body should last more than a few packs.
Nice job on your body, I’m waiting on aftermarket bodies, hoping for a Cherokee or new style bronco body
Is yours green?
Yes sir, I hope the clear ones aren’t as brittle. Been in rc for over 20 years, from that little bump the body should of been fine.
The green ones have been having a lot of issues with cracking. Contact Horizon and they will send you a new body.
I might have to, although I already did a patch job on the inside to prevent it from worsening
I did a warranty claim and they are sending me a clear body and some free cans of paint to paint it colors of my choice. No questions asked, and I even already patched it with drywall tape and shoe goo in the pictures I sent horizon hobby. Great service 👍
Looks like a redcat marksman! Only silver.
Always like your vid's only wisdom ...
Have a quistion.
Going to put a Ext.bec in mi SX6 and i think of setting it at 7 volts..wil that be also save for my shift servo and i heard you say that the lights cant be just plugged in on the reciever ( voltage)
How did you fix that.
I saw someone mount a set of mud slingers on their SCX6, not sure what size tire and wheel. Maybe off an X-Max? anyways, it looks amazing seems to perform pretty well. Not so much tire flex but that aggressive tread hooks on real well.
Hahahahahahaha another tool you could have tried is a body saw on that monster!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣 Came out great EXO!!! I want to get a second body for my Trx4 new Bronco and do this same mod. I have where people use the 10.3 interiors to do it.
Yeah the 10.3 interior fits really good in the trx bronco
😁😎
looks so much better without that ugly roof. For the head I look on ebay and find cheep action figures and take the head of you can also find 1/6 heads on there as well
Hmm I’ll have to do that
Nice job.... now if you don't mind please try on some bigger tires and rims let us know which ones fit to make it look monstrously awesome 👌
It’s getting Vitavon soon
@@ExocagedRC Bigger tires and wheels like super swampers🤗
I would like to see if loosing the upper weight helps with the body roll I seen in your first video of this. When you turned left it body roll and torque twisted pretty good. I wish Axial would have done the Capra instead in 1/6 scale. With full tubed frame, body panels no lexan body, light bar, portal axles, brushless sensored system, two speed and 8" tires. The 1/10 stuff I have found is too small for terrain along trails where I live and get stuck a lot, always kicking them over obstacles. I put 8.5" Jumbo Kong tires on my Summit and it does real good on the trails just really wanted tubed frame and body panels instead of lexan body and wanted portals axles.
I’ve painted my cage candy red on my scx10-3
Black roll caged, and trailing arms, with more aggressive tires maybe??
It does look great! You need to find that place that makes custom figures, and get one of yourself. (For the truck I mean haha).
I’d like to do that!
looks good, but damn did you try and even cut it nice the first go around lol.. did the same to my 10.3 dremel was the way... but patience so you dont melt the whole thing geez
Massive improvement. Why did axial do such a nice cage and interior and then hide it all.
The complete Scx10 iii body with cage and interior is just barely heavier than just the roof of the scx 6! It is definitely a beast. I am curious what the complete body of the scx6 weights.
Ever tried the score and snap? Might of been easier and cleaner. Think Hemistorm did a video on it.
👍👍👍
Hola amigo saludos desde España ñ. Muy buenos vídeos como siempre. T quería preguntar tuviste algún problema de roturas con el diferencial delantero? T agradecería un respuesta gracias
Vaccu-forming, man, the sheet of plastic gets stretched over the mold and will never be the same thickness all over. Always a win when it isn't wafer thin! Nice job... definitely time well spent
Guys, Vitavon upgrades in the description !!!
Yep!
That is pretty crazy that the top of that body weighs almost a pound
Shaved off almost one pound...just to put back some more weight back on top again...lol ! (just busting b@lls dude) Would never thought off that or even have the guts to do it...looks awesome though.
Cheers !!!
Yeah if I scale it out with accessories it’ll be back on. 😂
Always bet on Black.
❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥
if you told me that it came out of the factory like that i would believe it, and it should come like this as an option
My only concern would be the windshield. Nothing supporting it and a fall could get it bent backwards.
The cage supports it from doing that
Hey Joe kind of a personal question do you have friends in your community that you rc with? Have you had guests at the exoplex
They need to come out with a different body or somebody needs to 3d print one. I know it’s new and all, but it would be nice to get a pickup version.
Looks great 👍🏼, now just get ride of that Jeff Bezos looking driver to finish it off 😂😂
1 pound out. 4 more to go!
LoL idk how that will happen but it will be getting heavier down low soon
Someone had to do it
