Monster trucks have been the popular choice for RC’ers for years and currently this segment is booming yet again thanks to releases like the awesome Losi LMT solid axle monster truck. Supporting this resurgence are hot product releases like this JConcepts 2005 Ford Expedition MT body, perfect for use on the LMT.

OVERVIEW

The delivery of the JConcepts 2005 Ford Expedition body is another notch in the belt for the speedy race team from Florida. Options are key and with a range of sizing, wheelbase requirements, the Expedition by JConcepts fits several trucks currently on the market, including the Losi LMT. One bonus of an SUV body is the space for doors and windows, but also available space for decorative paint and decal schemes.

On the design side, it is important to have large wheel well openings on monster trucks and the design have incorporated that into all 4 corners to provide all important looks and clearance. The flares from the Expedition are built into the concept to maintain its scale like appearance. The front and rear-end have sculpted features for included headlight, grille and taillight decals allowing it to look the part either in plain garb or fully elaborate custom painted scheme.

A highly edged rocker-panel adds rigidity to the shell and realism to the design which blends perfectly into the fender flares. On the roof, you will find the bossed louvers which appear on the scale vehicle but also help strengthen the roof of the vehicle of the RC counterpart. Perhaps the most caring detail of the Expedition is the window treatment where the design has recessed sections throughout which the user can choose to mask out with included masks or wrap over or cover with paint.

Included in each body set, a clear and heavy-duty polycarbonate body, decal sheet and the paint mask for all windows. As always, each body set is backed with JConcepts customer support and racing heritage.
