Body Mounting Andy’s Chassis

Post by Synergy »

So I have a proline truck conversion that I’ve mounted onto an Andy’s trailing arm car and need to find a nice factory looking way of mounting the body

As most of you will know most of the conversions use a front body mount that attaches via the front nose tubes. Here lies the problem, the Andy’s trailing arm chassis is much like the graphite chassis in that it does not have nose tubes, so what to do, I don’t really want to drill additional holes in a mint Andy’s chassis?

I’ve worked it out, use shock mounted body mounts, it’s amazing how quickly you forget stuff 🙄

I started to forget things when I turned 50 years old. Now I am 61 and starting to drive around with my blinker on. :?
