Recently some Johnny Lightning Thunderjet bodies have come to my attention, that are not a direct bolt on for many TJet style chassis. The Daytona and Corvette Gran Sport specificly. The underside of each body, hits the top of the gear plate, preventing contact with both posts at the same time. Curious if this is a common problem with any other Thunderjet 500 bodies?
Not a big deal in my estimation. Its not hard to modify the body or chassis to make them fit. I buy and sell a lot of these and recently had a guy pitch a royal fit because he couldn't screw the bodies on, his chassis.
Upon checking them, I found there is some interference with the gear plate which varies according to which type of chassis is used. Aurora, AW, T-Dash and JL all fit differently.
Also noticed that Wizzard sells body spacers for JL bodies. May be a more common problem than I thought.
What kind of experiences have you guy had with these bodies?
