2014 Chevy 1500 Mini LMT Body

When it comes to monster trucks, Chevrolet has a die-hard following going back to the square body designs of the 70’s and 80’s. A keen eye will detect the family heritage in Chevy trucks and the 2014 features the angular wheel wells that are so popular and now JConcepts is bringing another favorite to the Mini LMT RC loyalist.

A heavy project for the JConcepts R&D team was developing this body to length and width specifications while maintaining the single cab layout. A highly popular body in the 1:1 community, the single cab has a mystique. From the large budget teams all the way to independent trucks, the 2014 Chevy is an important shell in the industry. The result, the Silverado has an inspiring look, something that makes a driver proud to be a truck enthusiast without the fear of racing it. The exterior design blends a strong and study look while refining the details reserved for modern aesthetics.

A twin-port grille, full-width bumper and dual power hump hood create a strong presence, which is carried through in sculpted body sides and fender flares. The grille area has not been compromised and accepts the detailed JConcepts decal sheet and includes two different grille and headlight options. The tailgate is rigid in appearance with a slight undercut that is so common on the Chevrolet trucks. The 2014 Silverado’s bed features a slight recess which painters can leave clear or detail to their specification on any build. No race truck would be complete without a bobbed rear bedside to give racers extra clearance and an unmistakable visual rake.

Decal design is a constant focus and with all JConcepts bodies, a quality sheet is included with grille, headlight, and taillight layout. Many JConcepts logos, brands and product names have also been included to give a full complement to usable artwork. Best of all, the new body delivers the style that today’s Monster Trucker is looking for without compromising on the rugged and dependable qualities. The 2014 Chevy Silverado is a sample of the bold, new offerings constantly in the queue with JConcepts.

This combination is intended to be used without the standard cage fitted to the traditional Mini LMT chassis layout. Instead, install the included body mounts on the chassis and use the appropriate angled style mount to the front and parallel mount to the rear. Adjust the height front and rear to personal liking and install the body clips as a traditional body. Body clip leashes are also included to help keep the clips in order; these can be installed to user preference and position of choice. Several different height and angled mounts are included for future projects and releases to accommodate an assortment of MT body shells.

Each package includes a window mask assortment, 2014 generation Chevy specific decal sheet, JConcepts #5230 body mount set, and clear polycarbonate body. The product is always backed by JConcepts customer service, supported and used by our world-wide racing team and developed by professionals with style and authenticity. When it’s time to fabricate a race truck or flash back to the golden years of Monster Truck Racing by dressing out a scale build, JConcepts is World Proven Innovation and Design.
