Default Nylint jeep body, What chassis to run?

My nylint crawler is wore out and i"m tired of the walmart electronics anyways so I would like to either get a super crawler chassis or do a custom build? Would be really neat to have shaft driven axles. What would be the logical thing to do? Seems like a super crawler is a little long? Nothing that can't be changed though. I'm sure this has been done before so links of known builds would be great! Thanks a lot!

I'd buy a brazing kit and make a custom one You can fit it to your body and be proud driving it knowing you made it
