I'm not aware of any available TJ bodies, just the newer and the older stuff. The closest you'll probably get for a 12.3" wheelbase like that is the Proline JK style. There are some YJ and CJ bodies out there that are designed for the smaller Tamiya type chassis, like the Tamiya YJ hard body or the TWS CJ7 lexan body.

As far as I'm aware, your only option is going to be to print (or have printed) a TJ body from a suitable 3d design.

Thank you for the reply.
I was afraid I might have to go with a jk....

I never heard of a SCZ10 - SCX -10 typo?
if it's the later all kinds of poly bodies can be fitted.
What's your wheel base currently ?

The only TJ body that I ever recall being made was from either HPI or Kyosho (I don't recall which) back in the early to mid-2000s. They did do a rerun of the body a few years back, but I don't recall them ever appearing on sites for sale. There is also one done by Nikko, but I don't recall the scale of it. There has been a few builds on here with the Nikko TJ body.

New bright had some tj bodies that are hard bodies. Not sure of availability anymore. You would have to custom fit them to a chassis.

I had forgotten about Mfab 3d bodies. They do have the TJ.

If I were to do another build I would go Mfab as they have the LJ model, which then I could replicate my 06 LJ Rubicon
