Wink Suggestion for Hua (RC4WD)
Have you considered to make a new chassis for the Tamiya re-re body Jeep Wrangler?
I'm thinking for a scale chassis like the one made for the F350 and for the Tundra, + some alu. axles, + 4 scale alu shocks...

Isn't Tamiya only selling the body on the kit, and planning to not offer it as a body kit?

Yes and I have already ordered a couple 100 And I agree a scale chassis for these is going to be HOT Something I have mentioned to a few. A trailfinder for the wrangler would be bad A$$

That's great, as in GREAT Would be very pleased if this would be a smaller version of the beautiful Disruptor chassis, also with alu axles and original leaf suspension

The chassis wont be Trail Finder or Disruptor based. I will look at reference pics of Jeep chassis' and come up with something

The Beowulf (XC front and rear) axles will be available soon and they are the right width for the Wrangler body:

I'd like to see a Toyo tire look-alike especially in 2.2! The tomahawk looks like a Toyo or Cooper kinda, although Toyo MTs and such both have way more side lugs. Also a procomp Xterrain lookalike or Goodyear MTR for 2.2 and 1.9. The irock looking prototype from the thread with the guantlet and rock and die is a must!!

Been a bit busy but Jeep chassis is almost done:

Click the image to open in full size.

Has steering servo and battery mount. Compatible with R2 tranny and can be leaf sprung with Beowulf (rear only)/D40/HL/TLT/USA axles or 4 linked with all axles.
