Redcat seems to be a fan having body mounts on the sides of the vehicle, which makes the top nice but MAN are they a pain to get the mount holes right when setting up a new body. This is based on the concept I saw on [youtube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5o-WkwDyymA) for velcro body mounts for a Redcat Ground Pounder. _(note: this is not my video, and it is for a different model)_ These mounts snap right over the stock body pin posts and provide a surface for [heavy-duty velcro](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00006IC2T/?th=1) you can use in place of the pins. I made them in a way that does not require any modification to the original components other than sticking the velcro on the inside of the body. As the inspiration video suggests, use the soft side on the frame and the rough side on the body so it does not scratch the inside accidentally. I used a razor blade to trim the velcro down to match the size of the mount, and cut out the holes to allow the body mount post to protrude out slightly so the body does not have to be expanded to fit. The velcro has very strong adhesive, I have not tried to remove it from the inside of the body so I do not know if it will remove nicely. You could remove the body mount and go back to the pins so long as you open the holes through the velcro on the body so the pins can fit through. # Links: * [Redcat Danchee Ridgerock](https://www.redcatracing.com/products/danchee-ridgerock?variant=31050565714010) * [VELCRO Brand Industrial Strength Fasteners, Tape, 4ft x 2in](https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00006IC2T/?th=1) * [Inspiration Video _(not mine)_](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5o-WkwDyymA)
