Welcome to the forum


You'll be hard pressed to find a good body to replace yours with, not without buying a whole sj with one, at that point though it wouldn't be worth swapping the body :lol:

You are probably better off repairing the body you have already.

You can get nearly all the panels...as long as you are willing to bring them in from outside the UK.

Yeah thanks guys but my body is so far gone on my SJ it isn't worth repairing I'm going to use some parts from it but is it with filler everywhere so I'd rather just keep going to try and find a decent body I'm trying to upload pics but won't let me do so for some reason then again I am using my iPhone as just can't be bothered to even get the laptop out LOL
