Anyone have used alt bodys that technically not meant for your car/truck
but made it work?

I have a NITRO SPORT with deminsions:
Length: 17"
Width:  6.5"
Height: 4.2"

And would like to get a older style ford bronco body on it
Its deminsions:
Length: 17 3/4"
Width:   8"
Height:  6"

Could it work w/ a few altercations?

decal.......

If the Nitro Sport is the old Traxxas model (kinda like a T-Maxx?) it should
fit just fine.

You shouldn't have to battle it (too much) to make it fit 8)  At most
you might have to trim some extra body away from the wheels and poke a
few holes for the shock towers.
