A guy I work with totally screwed up his oldWGP E-Ranger(managed to rip the volumizer/valve chamber in two trying to remove it without taking the ASA bolt out :tard: ) and a local store has a Classic Timmy with a PPS Stab for sell for $250. I was wanting to use the Ranger body on the Timmy. Anyone know how difficult this would be. Thanks in advance for any help.

Is the ranger body the same dimentions as a spyder?

I am not sure that I would pay $250 for a classic timmy though.....

For a local deal with the Stabilizer it's not bad, but you may as well get a nicer 2k2 Style timmy since it won't cost that much more. Also I really don't think it will be compatible.

Well classic timmys used the bob long millenium bodys IIRC which were spyder clones.. I dont know if it would fit, it would probably take some mods

Hobbes - I have been looking around for a while and I haven't seen any model of Timmy for the price of this one.

Person - I know it will take some work, I am pretty sure I will need to cut down the front of the bottom tube for the LPR. Just trying to see if anyone knows if the internals will fit right in. Cause I know on newer Timmies the lower tube osn't as big around as the lower tube on older Spyders.

Well the newer timmys are alot different than the classic timmys. Like i said, the classic uses a spyder clone body, so it should be pretty much the same thing as a spyder..

As long as its not one of the fatboy type bodies it should work if it is a spyder clone. I know a standard spyder body works on a timmy conversion quite nicely.
