|  CR-01 Body Choices?
I just saw someone running a blazer body in another thread, but are there any other choices of bodys for the CR01 that fit properly and look scale to the truck ? I love the stocker, but I want to get something different to run too. Thanks in advance. -Steve |

Go to your LHS and see what they have on hand. Measure the wheel base of the body you like. In stock form the CR01 is 11 and 1/2" long. You can shrink it a tad or extend it to almost 12 and 1/2" maybe longer. So anything in that range should work. I have the HPI Jeep Rubicon body but you need a 13and 1/2" or so wheel base if you want the wheels to line up right.

As for what fits best on the stock wheelbase, the Bronco and especially the D90 would be the best. | |

And Proline's Bushwacker fits the stock wheelbase much better than the stocker.

Thanks guys, I like the style of that Ambush body, looks pretty sweet. I'd really like a truck body, but most of the Proline ones are atleast in inch bigger then the above two mentioned. I dont like it when the bodys look out of proportion with the scale of the truck. EDIT: That Clod body looks sick on there. Is that with the stock wheelbase and everything ? |

That body looks pretty good on there, the wheel wells line up nicely. I'll keep my eyes open on eBay for something... Anyone else?! |

Parma does or used to make a lexan version of the clod body.. just an FYI.. it would be lighter than the ABS version.. if they are still available..

 Before we cut it down, I tried it on my CR-01, and the fit with the standard wheelbase was just right. Almost made me want to keep it for myself. | |

That Hilux body looks sweet on there. What sort of modifications did you have to make to get it to fit ?

Proline bodies for the stampede seem to fit well. I run a '72 Chevy C-10 on my Cr. Crawls just like a full size chevy does.
