Quick Question Regarding Chassiss.

[JuziTin]

I am planning to build a 1.9 Jeep JK Wrangler Unlimited (the 4 Door one) and I was wondering which chassis to get for it. I don't know if i should go get a SCX10 chassis, or and X-Trail, or an Exile RC Proscaler chassis, or something else! So can you guys please help me figure out which chassis I should get? Thnx in advance, Juzi

I have a JK on a welded tube and Cframe chassis. It is looooong.
I am not familiar with the Exile chassis, but both the xtrail and SCX rails would need lengthened to go under a JK.

What about a Reign K2-3L?

A K2-6 would work for sure.

THe problem is that...I can't seem to find the dimesions for the K2-3L chassis ANYWHERE? I even tried other forums...but no results. I think the K2-6 might be a bit too long. The interior length of the JK bod is about 18.5 inches.

On the SCX chassis, as long as you give it plenty of cross bracing, you can bolt on the extension rails, whether in the middle or at the rear.

Not sure the length on the K2-3L.
Here's a pic from Scale4x4. The Geolanders in the pic are 4.05" dia.
With an onscreen ruler, I came up with
103mm/220pix = length/890pix, so length would be 416mm = 16.4"
