Many people try and do this with varied results depending on their experience and how good they are at cutting and adjusting the Slash body so this certainly isn’t something that a beginner should try and do unless they are willing to live with it looking a little bit messy. However, just because you can do it doesn’t mean that they are truly interchangeable since modifications have to be made to the body and even then it still won’t look exactly right.

This is because the Slash’s chassis is quite a bit longer than the Rustlers, so, naturally, it has a longer wheelbase.Īs long as you don’t mind having to adjust the body or having it look a little odd then you can certainly put a Slash body on a Rustler. Afterall, both of these are made by Traxxas so it makes sense that the bodies might be interchangeable, but are they?Ī Traxxas Slash body will fit on a Rustler chassis but you have to modify the body significantly and it could possibly look a little bit odd.

If you have an extra Traxxas Slash body lying around because you don’t use it anymore or because you simply bought the wrong body you might be wondering if you can use it on a Rustler chassis.
