SCX24 Rear Cage for AMT 92 Toyota pickup

thingiverse

This rear cage for the Axial SCX24 is intended for the 1992 Toyota pickup body from AMT. its not intended to be super strong, it was made to be lightweight. Requires two M2x6mm screws to mount the cage to the cab. The rear of the cab needs to be cut to clear the electronics and to get the cage mounted at the right height (it mounts in this recess that you cut out), this cut is 21 mm up from the bottom of the cab and extends all the way to the sides of the cab, though you can leave about 1mm on the sides. I've included a template to make cutting out the top panel for the cage simple. Scale it down to 99.5%-99% so it fits without needing to be cut down. I used .5mm styrene for mine. More info can be found in my build thread on RCCrawler http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/micro-scale-rigs/609167-whittling-scx24-3.html#post5946930 Used the included hinge STL with the front battery tray and body mount found here (and set the body post at the lowest position): https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3677918 Or make your own front mount (I believe if you use the stock mount and its lowest position its .5mm higher which might be just fine) If anyone is wondering why the back has the flat plate to it my design got super buggy and refused to do anything other than that.
