bruder jeep
 
I shorten the wheel base on a 1/18th scale losi crawler and put on the red bruder jeep body. I have the green body and a second losi crawler. Still have some detail parts to make but here is a video and some pics of it so far.

I'm not a fan of the losi crawler for one reason-buy parts and bolt them on.
They should come with Velcro patches to make it easier to slap another body on it. So much talent and hard work goes into the builds and conversions on this forum. My point is, almost stock bodies mounted on a proven chassis does not share with others the visions, talent and skills you have. IMO Joe

Either way looks decent, on standard I'd just hope to see you change the wheels out. Not use those hard plastic ones.

I actually just picked up a set of the AFV-Model axles for the bruder Jeep. I'll post some photos as soon as I get a little further along with the build. These of course can't even be compared cause they are so **** expensive!! I think the losi stuff could work but the wheels/tires need to be smaller.

Re: bruder jeep
 
What kind of axles do you have in there?
