Technical Performance
The FMS 1:10 F100 Body Mount represents quality engineering designed specifically for the 1:10 scale platform. Body mounts are precision-manufactured components that must withstand the stresses of acceleration, braking, cornering and impacts whilst maintaining perfect alignment of the truck's bodywork. The front and rear mount design distributes load evenly across multiple contact points, protecting your model's body during aggressive driving, jumping and off-road bashing. FMS engineers these mounts to exact specifications that match the F-100's chassis geometry, ensuring that your truck body sits perfectly aligned with the wheels and chassis, maintaining the aerodynamic and visual integrity of your model. The mounts accommodate the 1:10 scale platform's proportions and weight distribution, making them ideal for both electric brushless RC trucks and traditional builds. Quality body mounts are essential for maintaining handling characteristics, as misaligned bodies can affect the vehicle's centre of gravity and responsiveness to steering inputs during high-speed runs.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a body mount and why does my 1:10 F100 need one? — A body mount is the assembly that secures your truck's plastic or composite body to the chassis frame. It's essential because it keeps the body correctly positioned and aligned during driving. Without proper mounts, the body can shift, rattle, misalign and affect your truck's handling and appearance. This front and rear kit provides complete coverage for your F-100.
- Are these genuine FMS parts? — Yes, absolutely. These are original FMS Hobby components manufactured to exacting specifications for the 1:10 F100 model. Genuine FMS parts ensure perfect fitment and compatibility with your truck.
- Do I need both front and rear mounts? — Yes, using both front and rear mounts together provides balanced, stable body support across the entire length of your F-100. This kit includes both, giving you complete coverage in one purchase.
- How often will I need to replace body mounts? — Body mount replacement intervals depend on how intensively you use your RC truck. Regular bashers and competition drivers may replace mounts every 6-12 months, whilst casual users might replace them less frequently. Having spares on hand is a smart practice for serious RC enthusiasts.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — Absolutely. Body mount replacement is one of the most straightforward maintenance tasks in RC truck ownership. Even novice builders and maintainers can install these mounts with basic tools and a little patience. It's an excellent first repair project.
- Will these fit my stock F-100 chassis? — Yes, these mounts are engineered specifically for the FMS 1:10 F100 and will fit your model perfectly if you own that specific truck. Verify your model number (APSC22007) matches your truck's specifications before ordering.
