The Top Force FRP chassis set should work, but you will need more parts to complete, there are a few guides for this on the web. Have a read of the link I posted earlier for more information on parts compatibility, also check here to see if looks like your Hummer: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=48983&sid=2193

And this is a pretty sick Top Force and Beyond build:http://www.tamiyaclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=31350

The item number for the Manta Ray FRP chassis set is 53099, but expect to pay a premium for that one. Better is to get reissue Top Force chassis plates and the J-Parts tree.

Otherwise, there is a very rare HPI FRP chassis set that you can use.

Add too that the alloy stand offs & steering post bag which are some $$$$$ too.

I was lucky enough to buy the hole conversion while they were cheap from e bay breakers. Pitty only bought 2 complete sets & one I have used already. :roll:

And 4 850 bearings for the steering. Can't remember if the body clips for the battery mounts were included with the screw bag or not...
