i was digging the raptor body the only issue is that it rubs just a bit, so i would have to open the wheel wells up, i had to do the same with the fj so i could get them on the chassis as low as possible... I was thinking of picking up one of those usa-1 models or a raminator to see what kind of fitment ide get out of those

For a crawler go with the FJ. Where can I find one of those Raptor bodies? Does that fake engine on the hood come off easy?

the raptor didnt have an engine on it. i found mine at walmart it came with a trailer with a 4wheeler on it as well, it was like 12.00$ and it was orange and yellow before i sprayed it black
