yea you can but it will be about 2 inches to long i measured the stock body and it is 16and 1/4 inch so it will fit you will just have to drill body post holes for your body post and it will be a little longer

Also for got to mention that the body shown is not what you are getting it will be a escalade but it is clear and not cutout so you will have to paint it and cut it out

ya i figured that, the painting i have no issue with, but is it hard to cut out correctly, im guessing a good thing will be maybe i have to cut the hole for my body posts so hopefully they wont be cut out already, since the body is longer i didnt want to have to cover the original holes if they were there, .....hmm so what do you think zack is it worth it if i like the style? i mean theres also this one
http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXEPD1&P=7 wich is a little shorter but if the length on that first one wont be too long that it looks weird , then id rather go with the first body

I would get the second body you posted because i just put my body on my stx and measured 19" and it looked goofy the first one will be to long.It wont be to hard to cut the body just try to cut it the same on both sides so it dont look bad.Also you will be able to drill your body post because if they come uncut than they dont have body post holes in them.
