JConcepts unveiled this body during the 2021 ROAR Fuel Nationals for the 1/8th truck division. The F2 body was constructed to perform at the highest level using the latest trend of reducing surface area above the shock tower line, and reducing the overall weight while maintaining a tight silhouette. For the 2021 event, the team focused on creating a body to fit 5 chassis configurations including the Mugen, Team Associated, TLR, HB, and Tekno.
What stands out on the JConcepts body is the raised nose that planes off the front shock tower. This design and styling were chosen over the buggy style mount to provide a better look, a cleaner and more durable fit and a better overall flow aerodynamically. To mount the F2 body, a carbon fiber adaptor is needed along with the Team Associated #81447 body mounts or Mugen #MUGE2148 (for MBX8T) to place the front of the body in correct position. Each truck has a specific adaptor produced in carbon fiber which bolts directly to the stock tower and once adding the (not included) body mount, provides a custom fit and beautiful finish.
The F2 name arrived after the team decided on using an existing style from the 1/10th stadium truck body already in the JConcepts line-up. The narrow shape, double upper railed cab with inner louvers are undeniable traits that carried over. The V-shape off the back of the cab, and a recessed bed area create a low-slung base shape. A strategically placed spoiler outlet in the bed transitions to the mounting area.
The nose cone was designed to attach on multiple trucks in a protective position. Complete the nose piece with included decal to give the truggy the ROAR required headlight and grille appearance.
The JConcepts body includes overspray film on top of the body, window mask for quick paint and prep, and a detailed JConcepts decal sheet.
Body is sold clear. Shown painted for display purposes only.
