Width of body cage of DBXL - will it fit on a Maverick Vader?

Guys

 

Does anyone know how wide a DBXL body cage it? I've a crazy idea of doing a custom fit to my Maverick Vader XB. As long as it is wider I think I can make the standoffs needed to hold it in place on the sides.

Thanks. I tried scaling and overlaying images of the DBXL and the Vader chassis. Looks like the DBXL wheelbase is also quite a bit extra. As a result the DBXL shell would not clear the wheels of the Vader. Will have to have a bit more of a think...

Would it fit my genuine Baja 5b, and can you get panels for it?

 

There's lots of nice looking things on that web site mate. Thanks!

Spoke to John from RCToyz to confirm the roll cage fits onto a HPI 5b. Also ordered some nice all terran wheels to go with it. He says they should get body panels in stock soon. He also gave me 5% discount code for Christmas.

 

Thanks again for your recommendations.
