Mr mopar Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 Ok to start if this is in the wrong spot Please move it Thx . ok Question would the roof of the Snap tite jeep fit the topless jeep Rubicon ? I would love to put a roof on it . and are these the same body ?
Goose1957 Posted December 1, 2018 Posted December 1, 2018 In theroy, yes. I have not tried it yet, but I have several of both kits to try and do as you are asking. I want to build a model of my real 05 Wrangler and it has both a hardtop and softtop with full steel doors. I could just use the snap kit as it is just like my Jeep, but I think the detail is lacking too much for my taste. The grill on the snap kit is filled in and the undercarriage is too simple for me. Plus, I would like to be able to remove the hardtop if I want to. The Rubicon body is too modified to match my Jeep, so I'll not use it for the build. I have too many projects to finish up now, so it will have to wait. But I'll get to it someday and hope to have a build photo thread for it. Have fun trying, I'll follow along if you do it. Jeff
Aaronw Posted December 2, 2018 Posted December 2, 2018 You could probably cut it off and use it on the open top, but they are entirely different kits. The one with the hard top is a much simpler snap kit.
Mr mopar Posted December 23, 2018 Author Posted December 23, 2018 Now I have both kits , and had a good look at them it will work but there is a lot of cutting both body's to make one ........ I'm going for it should look good when done ?
eldiablo78 Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 Look at those pics first an then take a decision. Rubicon 2014 Differential 4;10 56k in Canada.
BuilderX Posted January 23, 2019 Posted January 23, 2019 Yes they are both TJ bodies, with some modifying it theoretically it should work.
Mr mopar Posted January 24, 2019 Author Posted January 24, 2019 With a lot of cutting it will work .....here go nothing !!
