The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, renowned as the most radical off-road production pickup, has long been a favorite for monster truck enthusiasts. Its aggressive styling and robust nature make it an ideal candidate for monster truck conversions. Recognizing this appeal, JConcepts, a pioneer in RC innovation, first introduced a Ford Raptor body for RC enthusiasts back in 2010. Now, they are breaking ground again by delivering the iconic Ford Raptor 2010 body specifically tailored for the solid axle monster truck community. This release marks a significant moment, bringing the toughness and visual menace of the Raptor to the forefront of RC monster truck racing.
In the full-scale monster truck world of the mid-2000s, teams sought to revitalize their image, aiming for a racier and more visually dynamic appearance. This era saw the rise of “trophy truck” inspired monster truck bodies, adding a desert racing aesthetic to the scene and ushering in a new generation of monster trucks. However, in the RC realm, this specific body style was notably absent, leaving scale monster truck aficionados eager for a solution to replicate this aggressive look for their own models.
JConcepts, deeply rooted in racing heritage, stepped up to fill this void and proudly unveiled their Raptor body. At the 2018 Open House hosted at Bigfoot 4×4 headquarters in Pacific, Missouri, JConcepts showcased their most meticulously detailed RC monster truck body design to date. Drawing inspiration from the leaders in the monster truck industry, JConcepts successfully captured the Ford Raptor’s signature styling. The body features generously sized wheel well openings, a sculpted cab, recessed windows, a prominent hood scoop, and race-tucked rear fenders, all contributing to its aggressive stance and authentic look.
The versatility of the JConcepts Ford Raptor 2010 body is a key highlight. It is engineered to fit seamlessly on a wide array of solid axle trucks available in the market. Moreover, its wheelbase adjustability, ranging from 12” to 13”, provides compatibility with various chassis lengths. The race-proven extra cab design ensures ample space for mounting on popular chassis like the Axial SMT10. It also maintains a powerful presence when mounted on custom “shafty” and clod buster based rigs, offering builders flexibility in their projects. The flat bed area is intentionally designed to be customizable, allowing users to personalize the paint scheme and detailing to mirror their favorite monster trucks or create unique custom looks.
Each JConcepts Ford Raptor 2010 body package includes essential accessories to complete the build. Window masks are provided for clean and precise painting, ensuring professional-looking results. A new generation 2010 Ford Raptor specific decal sheet is also included, featuring accurate badging and detail elements to enhance realism. The body itself is formed from clear, heavy-duty polycarbonate, protected by an overspray film to maintain clarity during painting. As with all JConcepts products, this Ford Raptor 2010 body is backed by JConcepts’ commitment to customer service. It is supported and utilized trackside by their global racing team and developed by professionals dedicated to style and authenticity in RC.
