If you make it long enough it should work. Just have to put new holes in the body. Where do you get them from and what dimensions does that body have? I have stretched mine some. Could use a longer body.

There was once a guy who made a 'Quad-Motor' maxx. It had four 775 size drill motors, two trannies and was about 28 inches long and weighed 17lbs. He used a 1/5th sized buggy body on it and it looked pretty good. It can be done, but on a relatively stock sized truck, a 1/5th size body might look silly.

so the truck is length 28.3 width 17.4 height 11.2 wheel base 19.8
I Thinks the body will fit just fine if you stretch it some. say some where around 5 inches or so in wheel base. You would have to measure it out as you go along. You will have to make a chassis to fit you. It depends on you. You can make most any thing work.

You can take a piece of aluminum and cut it down to a lower chassis plate. I had a website that told you about it. Let me find it and i pm it to you.
