Whether you're refreshing your existing SCX30 model, building a custom RC car project, or simply want a clean, professional aesthetic on your scale RC truck, this painted black cab body offers an excellent solution. Built with attention to scale detail and finish quality, this body shell provides hobbyists and RC enthusiasts across the UK with the opportunity to transform their crawlers with a sleek, uniform look that captures the classic styling of full-cab truck designs.
This body is manufactured by RC Overhaul, a respected name in the RC modification and upgrade market, and is specifically engineered for compatibility with multiple SCX30 variants including the Ford Bronco 4X4, Chevrolet K10 4x4, and Jeep Wrangler JLU 4X4 rock crawlers.

It's an ideal choice for those looking to customise their 1/30 scale RC crawler or simply want a replacement body that maintains the quality and durability you expect from a purpose-built RC component.

This is a genuine, factory-painted component that arrives ready to install, meaning you can get your modified SCX30 back on the trail or display shelf in minutes rather than hours. The painted black finish is applied at manufacture, ensuring professional, uniform colour that won't chip or fade easily with regular handling and use.

Technical Performance
The RC Overhaul Full Cab Truck Body for the SCX30 platform is manufactured to strict tolerances ensuring proper fitment with the Axial 1/30 scale rock crawler chassis. The painted black finish is factory-applied, creating a durable, uniform coating that withstands typical RC handling, transport, and outdoor conditions without chipping or fading excessively. The body shell material construction is engineered to be lightweight whilst maintaining structural integrity during assembly, installation, and active driving. As a replacement bodyshell component rather than a motorised assembly, this product contains no electronic systems, batteries, motors, or servos — it is purely a cosmetic and structural body panel. This means installation is straightforward and requires only basic mechanical knowledge to mount onto your existing SCX30 platform. The body accommodates the standard mounting points and geometry of the SCX30 chassis, ensuring alignment with wheels, suspension travel, and mechanical components. For detailed measurement specifications and mounting instructions, RC Model Shop recommends consulting your specific SCX30 model's documentation to confirm body dimensions and mounting requirements before installation.
