Description

I CAN ONLY CONFIRM THIS FITS THE DEADBOLT SCX24 ( I know it doesnt work for the JLU and the C10 looks like it may work but I'm unsure, let me know in the comments if it does work for the C10)
UPDATE: Nick3509 has remixed this to work with the Jeep JL so check the Remix section if that's what you're after. Thanks Nick3509!

This is a front mount battery tray for the Axial SCX24 with an option to lower the body 4.5mm. I've included 2 versions, one with the body at the stock height and one with it sitting 4.5mm lower. The version that lowers the body also includes a new rear hinge that flips the body back farther and lowers the body (4.5mm).

To use this battery tray you need to relocate the ESC/Receiver. I found after removing the stock battery tray that the distance between the frame rails was virtually the same as the width of the ESC/receiver box and a very simply and lightweight way of mounting it was to simply glue it between the frame rails. I did bend over the motor terminals a little bit to get it as far forward as I could. Make sure to place it as low as possible without it interfering with the rear links and on/off switch. I'd recommend using E6000 or Shoe Goo, hot glue could work too but may come loose eventually. Gluing this in also added a bit of extra rigidity as a nice plus.
The front lights will need to be extended to reach the new ESC location.

For the lowered body mount version you also need to print the lowered rear hinge. This hinge also allows the body to flip back farther, so it no longer flips closed on its own easily. To get the front sitting 4.5mm lower you need to install the body posts at the lowest position. To use the stock height mount use the middle hole on the body post.

The battery tray prints in 3 parts, the battery tray, wing 1 and wing 2. This was done to make printing easier. The wings are what hold the battery in on the sides and they need to be glued in with CA (super glue), there's a groove on the mating pieces to help key them together.

The stock battery strap can be reused to hold the battery in. I also included battery strap slots so the battery can be mounted sideways or front to back. Just make sure your battery wires reach or you may need to make a short jumper. I recommend installing the battery strap before installing the tray on the chassis.

NOTE: after printing clean out the body post holes with a 3mm drill bit, run it backwards for the least chance of splitting open the part.

Here's a video of an installation (not mine) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRrjmg3-6JU&lc=z23zz1rjmzuswbez404t1aokg1rkxv3vgyuv1qnljqnxbk0h00410.1576213638660995
