Default Project 1.9 Overhaul :Weekend FJ40 Cruiser

I have this rig and I going to make some changes. The Chassis was built by one of the best on the site Shon aka R2j. It's an honor to work on his chassis. They are built straight and with class. This rig I'd no different. Amazing work.

It has been built with Yota Scale axles and has been done the right way with a GCM transfer and chassis mounted servo. Very nice and rare.

Thanks for the compliment bro. But not a hard body. It's the old proline one.

New Yotas bolted up. I can say enough on how impressed I am with the panhard/cms/3link setup. Beautifully done.
