Where to find body armor in GTA IV

Doing missions in Grand Theft Auto IV without body armor is quite hard, so getting an armor before starting a mission is a good idea.

Where to find body armor in GTA IV

Weapons shop – you can buy body armor at the weapon shop for $500

Little Jacob – if you want body armor at a cheaper price ($300), you can get it from Little Jacob after unlocking his special ability. To unlock his special ability, just take him out (after you become his friend) to places like shows, bowling, pool and strip clubs.

Cheats – to get an Armor for free (using cheats), dial 362-555-0100 on your cell phone. If you want health, armor and ammunition, dial 482-555-0100 instead. Keep in mind that this will block some achievements.

Secret locations – If you do not wish to buy or use cheats and still want body armor for free, you can try finding them on secret locations of the map. Access the Internet on GTA 4 and go to www.whattheydonotwantyoutoknow.com.  You will find maps showing secret locations of body armor, heath, stunt jumps and pigeons.

If you are not able to find body armor using the map, you should watch this YouTube video which helped me find body armor easily:
