| replacement bodies for the LOSI MRC
I would love the D90 Land Rover, any ideas where to get that? I have seen the "convertible" model, but I am looking for the hardtop Camel trophy style I could live with the Toyota landcruiser style, or a bronco but REALLY would like to get the Land rover. |

Well I finally found the right body for mine. Its the new bright jeep rubicon. It looks great on the lil losi. I've started a build thread in the 1.9 forum. |

Not really what you are looking for, but 2 more options for others I have the Jeep one in my garage. WB about 7" Width 3.5" Would that fit? |

well I ordered a d 90 convertible body the other day. I figure these have the same type of SCALE as my RC TUGs I can take a hull of a given length and by changing the superstructure I can change the scale {the boat becomes LONGER OR SHORTER to scale by the change} With the "1/18" scale tube rock crawler could actually have several different lengths in the real world, whether it is a V8 type or the smaller rear drive VW type, 1 seat, 2 seat or 4 seater. now if the D90 body has wheel wells that match the LOSI it would change the "SCALE" from the 1/18" to the 1/10" {or whatever it is} truck. Some of the rock crawlers have wheel bases way outside the bodies they have on the truck, good for competition but not real scale. comments, thoughts, etc..... |

The Losi Bronko body and the PTI Jeep body look great on the Losi MRC. I bet the Duratrax Cliff Climber body looks good too. | |

I think it looks scale to the rigs I posted above. The PTI Jeep looks even a bit more so. With 49" and 54" tall tires on trail rigs nowadays, scale takes on a different meaning imo. | |
