Haha yea I love the look of the bronco on this it's so badass! And I also love my Chevy body also haha. I'm going to use the Chevy body as more of a basher and the bronco for lighter stuff.

I came up with 12inches front and 11inches for the rear. And the body is like 11 5/8 and the rear is about 11 1/2

I'm going to hopefully build a roll cage for the bronco at some time but leaving the interior out and the yeti cage doesn't really fill out the bronco body very well so that's why I will probably build a custom cage for it. My Chevy body fits the yeti cage perfectly tho which is cool. Also will not be running the interior in that one either and will be cutting the Windows out so I can keep my temps down

Did you have to shorten the wheelbase at all to fit the body?

Does that combination work without too many modifications? I really want to do this with my Yeti but I'm trying to keep the price as low as I can, were there any major or expensive changes you needed to make in order to adapt the car to the shorter wheelbase? I assume it required some suspension tune tweaks in the rear

twin hammers trailing arms, wraith upper links and a shorter driveshaft. I ended up using a junfac shaft for the scx10 on mine. my mip was too long.
