stulee666 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 hi mate yes you can fit the 8 shell on a 7 chassis but you will have to mod it. i fit one to mine a while back along with other 8 parts and it looked sweet mine was a pbs but that shouldn't matter anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyper7 09 Posted January 16, 2010 Author Share Posted January 16, 2010 what kind of modding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stulee666 Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 what kind of modding. you need to trim it to pass over the front shock tower,also the body mount holes are different,the rear one you have to drill anyway on a new shell but the front one is pre drilled,what i did was move the bodypost back so it didn't have to put another hole in it and its worth the effort coz it looks alot better. You may have to trim around the engine aswell but again this is common anyway and real easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
