Been looking around for yj bodyshells, in fact any jeep bodyshells and i'm struggleing to find any. Well not entirely true, there is a guy on ebay uk selling the tamiya shell for £100 (something like $160us) but i'm not prepared to fork out that much when i know they can be got cheaper. I have seen a site in the US that sells them but i can't find it again... I am going to get a hpi rubicon body for starters, they are easy to get hold of and inexpensive. Anyhoo, i would like to get a couple of shells one being a yj and i love the look of the cherokee shell but they are like gold dust. |

I got mine from JR RC as Dale mentioned, The one you seen on ebay is an original body set that's why its so expensive! The rerelease is cheaper :nice: rpp do ship to UK but the shipping cost is high , I was going to buy a snorkel from them but shipping was more than the cost of the snorkel :laugh: Edited by archway66, Feb 21 2010, 12:25 PM.

Thanks guys :nice: Thankyou for that offer Old Skool your a gent, don't forget that works both ways. Will also keep an eye out for JR-RC, i think i saw one of his a little while back and when i looked back for it it had sold. Guess they don't hang around long. Archway, Ah that explains it then, thought it was a bit high :laugh: . I hear you on the shipping cost, i was going to get a frame from a known vendor and the shipping was quite high, i would have swallowed that if they could mark down the value for shipping, but paying that cost and then getting hit for tax/duty just made it out of my reach :ouch: Thanks again. |

You might find there is differences in the part numbers due to re release / original version etc but that should give you an idea! Mirrors + rear lights are 9005439 at JR RC Edited by archway66, Feb 25 2010, 09:38 PM.
