I want to replace my TLT body with one that fits the size of my truck now that I've extended it. The WB is 11" and I wanted to know where I can find some good bodies. I like the early Bronco, older Land Cruiser and Toyota PU bodies. Really up for any kind of off road type bodies. Are there any websites where I can find them. Thanks for the info.

They seem to make some of the best looking bodies.

HPI has a Jeep and Bronco.

Proline had a Jeep and Toyota FJ40.

Thanks guys. I knew they were out there, just didn't know where.

Unable to find any of those that you all metioned. Found an early Bronco but not sure if it will fit my truck. It said it was 17 3/4" long. I don't want it to be too big and look goofy.

The HPI Bronco has an approximately 11-1/2" wheelbase.The best thing to do would be to take a tape measure to the lhs and measure some bodies that you like.

Most of the Maxx or Savage size bodies are between 11-12" wheelbase. Both the HPI Bronco and Rubicon are 11.5". The Proline F100 and C10 bodies are both also 11.5"

Most likely the one you found is HPI's '73 Bronco (it matches the dimentions), the one that people were mentioning. It's really not that big, and doesn't look goofy. I use that one on my TLT rig (click the link in my signature for pics of it).

That bronco body is sweet. I think that's what I'll go with.
