List of bodies that fit the Yeti

Has anyone spotted any aftermarket roll cages that will work on the Yeti. After watching some U4 I suddenly want a roll cage instead of a body. For now I'll just take my body panels off, but I want something different.
 
What I'm trying to find are a couple of extra cages - one for bashing, one for the bug body and one for my shiny Freqskinz wrapped body. Anybody know of a source (besides buying 3 parts trees from Axial)?
 
Here a some bodies that fit the Yeti. I have tried several but these have been the most fun.

For both bodies...

Fenders must be cut or trimmed to liking.

Body mounts must be used to mount the body.

Ok...Lets see..

I still have no solid decision on how or even what body I'm going with for my yeti project but that is one bad axx looking Wrangler"thumbsup"
 
Any other angles of this? Side and rear perhaps?

There ya go.

Note: The Exo cage makes a very nice rock slider on the sides of the body. They actually protect the body from damage if you get caught up in between the rocks. No scrubbing if you trim the front down as I did. I thought about custom fabricating a way to connect the bars at the front but it turned out fine IMO. Good fit all-in-all.

Dang another awesome rig! I thought that going in, this thread would make choosing a body or roll cage.. Or both, easier....it turns out that it is actually making it much harder!

Still seeing these great ideas, mods and paint jobs inspires me to be more creative maybe even take a chance out of my comfort zone, if nothing else!

I put a proline XJ body that I had laying around on mine I plan on a 2dr jk when it arrives next week
 
This isn't exactly perfectly on topic.......but close . I just finished building a 2.2 Traxxas Summit. The Yeti cage is abolutely perfect for it. ...and the pro line yeti Baja Bug fits right over it.
So I'd bet that the reverse is true also......most bodies made for the Summit or Revo should be a fairly close match for the Yeti





 
Saw those last night. interested to see what the raptor is like. I really hope its not a sct body specific for the yeti.
