PLEASE continue this build thread. I just bought a nb TJ from Wal-Mart for @ $50 after searching for one forever (seems like they always have JKs and never TJs). Anyway, This will be my first scx10 kit build (always had rtr vehicles) so I am following your thread and a few others for insight on how to do metal fab etc. (yes, total build noob). Anyway, I really like tyour start here. What you have done with your fenders is EXACTLY what I had in mind. Please show us more detailed photos as you come along. I will literally be trying to mimick you! GREAT JOB.

I made custom body mounts that are attached to the chassis rails and mount to the under side of the body for the rear. For the front, i used a long flat bar that spans the original body posts and fabbed up a mount system that mounts to the chassis rails. Not as easy to mount but i eliminated the body holes and the body doesnt go anywhere. Ill try and snap some pics tonite.

Looks great! "thumbsup"
Would love to see some pics on how you mount the body. I'm looking for a way to mount an XJ body without body holes.
There's a huge difference between these hard bodies and lexan XJ body. This body has numerous posts hanging down to use for body mounting. There should be a thread in the paint & body forum about this exact topic. Good luck on your build.
SER3100, what's the story will this get sold as is or are you gonna finish it?
