This is the only vid i can find for how these things work thank you
Glad to help!
Yep I was thinking the same ; look great, nicer than clips, not for racing due to time lost.
Very true
I'm so glad you did this vid considering I just got these for my truck!
Cool! Thanks for watching, Wes.
I was able to do some test runs on my TLR22 SCT yesterday with the installed Pro-Line Secure-Loc body mounts. Nothing broke, the caps stayed very secure with just a small drop of blue loctite (Which was overkill, because they were hard to remove initially) and I didn't lose a cap! All in all, a great additon to my race truck!
Those are some real clean and trick looking body mounts
Thanks Johnny! Already tested then out and they work great!
Your welcome rich, I really enjoy watching all your video's
nothing better than the good ol clips!!!!
cant defeat the simple and cheap clip method
if you want to make a semi permanent body mount, just use some shoulder screws with a flat washer,simple and cheap
That is really a good invention!
thanks RCHamburg!
very cool...gonna get some for sure...thanks for sharing, cheers!!!
Thanks Manos!

I have them for my Slash 4X4 with a Raptor Body and they work great for me. I want to try them on my Rally as I loose a body clip every time I drive it.

Awesome product.
+ronotardo Thanks Ron
Cool! Thanks! 🤩
On the inside of my SCT body I've put two pieces of Gorilla Glue® brand duct tape over the holes, then take a sharpened pencil and push through from the inside. Now when you push the body down over the posts the tape grips the post - no need for clips!
will this fit the Losi eight buggy 3.0?
Only trouble with them is once the nut's are lost you have to remove the system and go back to body clips, so you might aswel stay with the clips and use the body clip tethers several manufacturers produce or make your own as I do,unless they are going to sell or already do sell the nuts separately and supply a couple of spares in the packet.
I run largescale gas trucks and buggies and like to get a scale look as much as is possible so anything that would replace the body clips is a bonus my Losi 5ive-T is the best with only four body clips pretty much out of sight and are tethered with my own home made tethers.
I getcha! I think for a 2wd race truck both scale looks and heft is not a factor. I wanted to try a new design, that after the initial install and the use now, has shown to be a great design. As for losing them, I picked up the Secure-Loc cap set that extra caps and hardware.
I have just glued a small magnet on the body and problemo solved !!! No more lose body clips
Got them and lost one on the first qualifier. Was able to find it afterwords. Pretty hard to take off/on during the actual race, lost a lot more time than with the pins. Make sure they are well tighten. I do like how they look. My 2¢
Cool, thanks for the info. I plan to run a bit of loctite on them to start.
Good idea

awesome. after the qualifier, i had no problems with mine. I do like them dont get me wrong.
How does this solve the body clip problem? If you lose one of these you're pretty much up the creek until you order these special caps from proline. With a body clip most people have a spare or two that they would give you, or you could make your own. Other than that it's pretty cool and good review
Forzalogistics45 It may not solve the "lost clip" issue (if you happen to lose one). but you're less likely to lose one of these. With a very small amount of Loctite, they stay on with no problems
Wheel nuts work great in a pinch.
Yeah you can just use M3 or M4 lock nuts.
Better to buy a hand full of thumb nuts for PCs.
They come in all colors and look fancy. They'd work perfectly.
Infact im going to get some myself.
The proline problem is much worse than lost clips.
Think fire and hard to reach battery. Plus 4x nuts to take off before getting the battery out.
Luckily my rc body is chopped so lifts at the sides and easy grab lipo.
Im nervous one day my rc will burn lol. I seen too many others fire videos.
@@englandstillhasit Better to be safe than sorry!! 👍
Nice review, thanks, does Proline sell the top caps only? I can see myself loosing them.
Craig Blackmer Yep: www.prolineracing.com/performance-parts/pro-line-body-mount-thumbwasher-kit/
yea it happens to me bro i just end up look for random ones around the track once i found 5 of then just lying at my pit table
Rc Rage Nice!
Hey rich. I was just wondering do they make these for the tekno sct410. Thanks buddy keep up the good work
Not officially. I have used the SCTE version which are round and they fit into the square hole of the SCT410's body mounts. I had to widen the holes of the SCTE mounts as the SCT410 uses larger screws for mounting
Hi rich,
You stated these worked on your Yeti XL. I was wondering if they would fit on the front of the Axial Yeti 1/10 ? I will wait for your answer before buying. Thank you. You are always so helpful.
+Smokey Bandit I'm not where my 1/10th yeti is....but the diameter of the rod on the secure loc posts are about 3/16th"
Do you need the adjustable up rites for these to work on a reg two wheel drive Slash?
You shouldn't, just make sure you purchased the ones intended for a 2wd slash
How you liking your mip hex drivers? About to pull the trigger on them and since you have had them a little bit now I figured I'd ask you.
Best drivers ever! Totally worth the money. I actually gave away all my other drivers.
Are the Pro-Line compatible for a river hobby spirit VRX buggy with a bulldog (truggy) shell.
Not sure....never heard of that buggy
I notice about those body mount caps in ur other video but I forgot to ask, anyways I tend to loose body clips to and for some reason cant find it anymore haha, Im realy into the big round clips but il try these ones soon and they look neat
I think they're a great alternative to those little pain in the @ss clips

Would these work for Arrma RC? Like the Vorteks, Big Rock, Typhon, and Kraton 6s?
I don't believe so
ok, nice clean product. but what happends when you loose a nut in the grass? a bodyclip can be replaced with just about anything like a piece of wire, a hairpin and so on when an emergency occours. just a thought.
That's whay I picked up an extra set of Secure-Loc caps. I'm also going to use my loctite idea as well. The easy thing is I'm using this on a race truck that'll be on an indoor clay track.

The RCNetwork That's the problem, extra Secure-Loc Caps are 4 for $7, or get 120 body clips for the same price and there's a million ways to tether clips to the body so you don't lose them... not rocket science hehehe.
It's all good! I wanted to try these out and they work great for my application. I think they're an upgrade. I'm sure that people will be using body clips for eons! Lol
Can’t seem to find the round body poles/ arms anywhere. All the new ones seem to be square. Looking to get some for my rival mt10 and would need the round ones. Can anyone point me in the right direction please. Cheers
Yeah, it seems that they've revamped the secure loc product line now
Will the post fit in the scx10 shock mounts
I think they'll be the right size, but you'll have to modify slightly to get them in as the ScX10 isn't round or square.
Have you tried filming on a black back ground, try it out you will find that the camera focus much faster and stays focused.Light for stills,Dark for videos.
res1492 Thanks Res, I will try that. I appreciate the input, I'm still learning the best way to film and have invested in some serious equip over the past couple of months. What about a blue?
Do they fit 1/10 scale monster trucks
Pro line has versions for the Traxxas line. Summit, Revo and Maxx trucks. Check the link in the video description.
I got a scte 2.0 and it only has one bar but i see 2 in this vid and whats it for
Mark Atkins To keep them stable at higher levels
Thanks
Do this for the scx6 please
It should be easy to do....if you can still find these
Do these raise the body at all?
If you consider the thick collar part under where the body mounts, that's possible, but I haven't had an issue
I think these would be perfect if they had some sort of lanyard
Kinda like AirPod tethers? They work fine without
Hey Rc network will this traxx stampede 4x2
Not sure on that one....
Ya cool
would it fit ecx amp
Not sure on that one....you may have to be creative, as I don't believe Pro-Line makes parts for the ECX
And they don't vibrate off when running the rc? If not I might have to get me a pair for my rustler. Great vid
I am going to add a small amount of loctite, just to give it some tackiness when threading on/off
I might get that and try lock tight thankyou good call and vid man
Thanks Chief!
chieffirewolf Borgman if you ues the little fome pad they wont vibrate off i have them on my slash love them
BIGJAMESRC thanks bigjamesrc I'll try it out
pro-line body mount system is great! BUT! i thought "this could be even better" and i went and perfected it. i'm way too proud about my little accomplishments
Apparently way too proud to tell us how you perfected it.
Can this body mount work for the blackout sc
Not sure....as I haven't owned that model
Okay
Do they fit tekno sct410?
They don't make one for the Tekno, but I was able to use the round SCTE version in the square Tekno hole with no problem.
What ones should I get for the yeti xl?
I believe these ones....but you'll have to fit them
@@TheRCNetwork Thanks! I enjoy your videos very much!
Won't they comes loose from vibration?
with a little loctite and the the included oring, it shouldn't and hasn't
No problems for me.
Another 100 years invention is today we are still using grub screw on the pinion..with the huge amount of power today the grub screw easily slip off the motor shaft even with 24 hours of threadlock..why can’t just come out with new standard to have a screw going thru the motor shaft instead, to have a good grip and torque..
Significantly weaker rotor shaft mayb. I agree its pretty basic atleast add two grub screws.
C clips are the worst. Those things are lazy designers duct tape. Hb tessman buggt uses c clips on the diff outdrives ther horrid things to put on without ruining them.
Which one will fit the Tekno MT410?
I'm not sure there's an official Tekno version of these
The RCNetwork only for sct410..
How do you do the back ones?
Pretty much same as the fronts
Okay thanks. :) Do you have a link of where I can order this product?
Where can I get them
The video description has a link to Pro-Line's website. If you act fast, they have 15%off through V Day.
will it work for hpi e firestorm
shadoww gaming I'm not sure....haven't owned an HPI E Firestorm. It's very possible though if your comfortable slightly modding them to work. The rods measure 6.4mm, so check your body mounts and see if they'll fit
ok thanks
I wouldnt use them for hardcore bashing as I do with my slash 4x4 I have a had some problems but I guess dropping from 20+ feet from a 7 foot jump back first dosent help ahaha :D
I was installing them on a race rig for an indoor clay track. Even though, with a small amount of loctite, they're not coming off unexpectantly
I think I might try some lock tight thanks for the idea :D
Zero instructions included in my Pro-Line kit. Skip ahead to 4:00 to see how the majic comes together!
too long to unscrew... I use the Proline Pro Pulls... Cheap, faster and effective
I hate these kept coming off even with blue lock tight i prefer using locking clips now never lose them

have fun with those piles of crap i broke them off the first day at the track and i only flipped once
I keep the shiny side up! lol Nice name....

Not universal
2 ads before the video started whattt
Welcome to CZcams....I "allow" ads on my videos, but do not have control of when or how many.
These things aren’t great, the small metal shaft beats and cuts the body when you wreck, they’re hard as hell to line up and if you’re screwed loose one. I had them on a week and couldn’t wait to switch back. Save your money and Just use a rubber clip leash if you’re worried about loosing them
Don't Wreck. lol
Rcnetwork it’s an rc car it’s gonna roll or flip every once in a while no matter what.i had these on my slash and they ripped clean through a brand new body
They only work on flat bodys!If you lose one cap, one caps probably the price of 100 body clips!Dont like!
Terrible no thought design. Just get the Arrma pins with a tether.
I like that it’s different. Is it perfect, no. And the Arrma clips came like 5 years after these, btw
i hate body clips
Totally agree
