How often should I check my body posts?

Troubleshooting
Body post does not fit correctly.
Verify that you have the correct model (FTX Outback Fury or Hi-Rock) and that you are using the correct post for the front or rear as intended. Ensure no debris is obstructing the mounting holes.
Body is not sitting flush after installation.
Check that all body posts are securely tightened. Ensure the RC body itself is not warped or damaged, as this can affect fitment even with properly installed posts.
Body post appears loose.
Tighten the screws securing the body post to the chassis. If the screws no longer grip, the mounting point on the chassis or the post itself may be damaged, requiring further inspection or replacement.
