FCX24 Custom Body Mounting Posts

thingiverse

A set of body posts to allow custom lexan body's on the FMC FXC24 Chassis. Each is made of two parts that must be glued together, this allows for great flexibility in your mounting options. Codes to the Body Mounts Narrow / Wide Depending in which set of mounting points your are wanting use use Width x Depth where Width is the Width of the top section. Depth is mm from top to full width Top mounts are available in 25, 35 and 45mm lengths. Top mount configurations Plain, 1 Post (3mm), 2 Post, or 6mm magnets. Glue top mounts to body posts with CA or your favorite glue. There are a few custom parts for the ProLine Power Wagon Body for the narrow front. Magnet pieces are available for 1,2,3 mm x6 magnets. If you leave 1 magnet proud and the other shallow it will allow the body to self align.Use one for on top of the body post, and one can be glued into the body. To mount the body posts I drilled a small hole in the side of the FCX24 frame and used a 2mm screw to secure in place. Cut the excess length off the body post after you get your needed height. I choose to glue them together as this made things easier to print, have more flexibility in your mounting options. It also allows the supports to be printed flat on the printer bed for better strength. I have had no problems using 20% infill on my prints. 2022-08-08 Added some top magnetic plates with 1.5 and 2.5mm depth. Fixed magnetic pocket on ProLine Power Wagon top sections.
