DIGITAL FILE Crawler Bog 406 Cab
PLEASE make sure your 3D printer is able to print a minimum size of 200x190x152mm. before purchasing.
UPDATE 8mm lifted mounts are now included in this design. If you've found the ride height a bit too low, these mounts will lift the cab up by 8mm. The bed's ride height stays the same. These new mounts should work with both high and low exhaust tail pipes. A new bumper is also included to accomodate the 8mm lift to avoid having a big gap between the cab and bumper.
UPDATE A new style of roof is now included in this design. It has an overall more aesthetically pleasing look (please see renderings above). It's recommended to print it in split pieces vertically for a smoother shape. An additional 2x M3*20mm grub screws are also required.
The Bog 406 is here!
Check out our Vanquish VS4-10 Portal Bog406 build here! (Please note that the flatbed shown in the pictures are sold separately here)
This truly iconic and classic design is a real eye catcher. Introduced here is a lightweight and super easy to mount, detail packed body for your standard crawler. It’s truly TRAIL WORTHY as it’s not a bulky truck that's more for show. Just treat it with some care while driving.
Designed to be used in tandem with the “Bog 406 Flatbed” (sold separately), it is a seamless integration which makes the most out of the cab. The combination is an awesome one as the flatbed itself comes with a plethora of options. Highly recommended you go check it out.
A TRX6 flatbed we've designed specifically for the Single Cab can be found here:
Intended for a 290mm wheelbase (11.4in), this cab will also work with the standard 313mm (12.3in) and 324mm (12.8) wheelbases. NO NEED FOR CUSTOM LINK LENGTHS ANYMORE! As it’s made to fit in with other standard 1/10 crawler bodies, 240mm width or 250mm and above (from outside tyre to tyre), 120mm diameter tyres are recommended. Scale diagrams are shown for mock-up wheelbase setups to help you decide your wheelbase length.
Easy and hassle free mounts are provided for the SCX10 ii, SCX10 iii, VS4-10 Pro, TRX4, TRX6 chassis. This means you will not need to design or fabricate your own mounts!
Furthermore, these mounts have slot holes which allow for fore and aft adjustment to fine tune on body positioning and placement. The body mounts set the Bog 406 cab at a set height, giving you a killer looking stance at ride height. No more of that ultra lifted unrealistic looking monster truck-like stance with super high CG. Be sure to use portal axles for the most realistic look.
These “Rock Shield” body mounts also double up as rock sliders with their very beefy and slippery design. They will take the punishment on the trail.
The details included on this truck are quite extensive which makes it really photogenic as well!
Side vents and side vent guards as part of that iconic look

The doors and the bonnet are also ready for hinges to be mounted, giving you ease of access to the electronics, transmission, and the battery.
Grooves are also cut to allow clear polycarbonate sheets of up to 1mm in thickness, to be installed as windows and the windshield.
DXF files for all the windows and windshield pieces are included.
The bumper included comes with the bumper mount, which will just slot into any standard 43mm bumper mount. It also allows the bumper to be mounted 5mm higher, or if flipped, 5mm lower.
The printing process is easy and optimized with this cab and is suitable for beginners. Please ensure your printer can print a volume of 200x190x152mm.
