410.3 Body Options whats everyone running?

[MMULISHA84]

Just picked up a 410.3 got tired of not being able to hang with the Tekno's. I know all my SCTE wheels are going to fit, but when I look at J Concepts website nothing says it fits the 410.3 am I missing something?

I prefer the ProLine FloTek series of bodies with all the cutouts, they tend to be the most competitive with minimal parachuting and my truck flies almost as good as my EB48

Note that the SCT410 shares the same body holes as the SCTE so all your old bodies will be a direct fit too!

 

[MMULISHA84]

Awesome, because I just painted a new FloTek for my SCTE. Well that makes life easy, Thanks

I have the Proline Flo-Tek Fusion, Proline Flo-Tek, Proline Raptor desert truck as well as a couple Proline true scale bodies for when I'm not at the track. I'm also ordering the JConcepts F250 as that seems like a really popular racing body for the SCT410.3.

The only one that was sort of a pain to fit was the FloTek, as the rear body mounts ended up right next to the molded roll cage parts of the body in the back. After just a few tumbles one side broke and I have had to do a lot of work to get it to work again as the lexan tore up on one side by the hole. I probably wouldnt go for that body again even though I really like the way it looks..

I have been using the ProLine body mount system with the caps backed with body washers, never lost a fastener during a race and stopped tearing up my bodies at the mounts, best investment ever:

I've used that in the past and had great luck with it as well. I ended up using those washers to fix the body mount I broke, but the main reason it failed was because I was crashing so dang much trying to dial the truck in and getting rid of the nosedive issue haha. Not sure anything would have prevented the abuse I put it through...

@Billl DeLong the body mount system you linked to, shows it's for a slash. Are they a direct fit or did you modify them?

 

[NimblyBimbly]

I thought this might be worth a bump since it hasn't been updated in a couple years. I'm just about to order a 410.3 and ended up here after finding most of the available race bodies don't list this truck as compatible.

Is the Proline Flo-tek with Proline Slash Extended Body Mounts and large nylon body mount washers still the go-to? I like the look of the Fusion version and I like the idea of pre-cut. Would that work well?

Any other potential suggestions?

I've been running this body on my SCT410.3 lately, flies very well without any issue clearing large 1/8 triples, it offers similar cutout options as the Flotek series:

Cool. Looks like you went back to standard body clips? With the Tekno body mounts?

had no choice... I sold my .1 with the ProLine mounts, and they discontinued making them by the time I got around to buying the .3

I've been tinkering with the idea of making my own mounts with TPU on my 3D printer, but very busy with a long list of other projects that are higher priority, ha!

I clicked the Amain link you posted in November 2018 and it shows as in stock. ?‍

Yes they still make the caps, but not the TEKNO body posts, I tried drilling into stock TEKNO mounts but they don't hold up, this is what I'm talking about:

Gotcha. That's too bad.

I drilled mine to use the nuts that I made, they have been holding up so far. I am planning on machining some out of plastic. Sounds like the same boat your in. WAYYY to many irons in the fire.

Have you tried the Proline Axis body? I'm running axis now but seems my old flotek I used to run had less parachuting.

I'm curious about the Axis too. My local shop has the Axis and the pre-cut Flo-tek in stock. Looks like the main differences are the Axis doesn't have the holes in the roof and also has one row of larger "rear window" vent holes instead of the two rows on the Flo-Tek.

The Axis is about half the price though. I'd like to think the more recent design means it should perform well too but not sure that's the case.

For the Raptor True Scale Body, where did you get extended body posts? I have that body for the SCT410.3 I just built and it rubs on the tires. I can't find extended body posts, the 6272-00 that Proline used to make are discontinued and I can't find them anywhere.
