I was in Hong Kong for the Asian Scale Invasion - and then with a bit of luck I ended up having this in my Hotel Room.. |

Still traveling in Asia I decided to order a TF2 LWB for it after mocking up some things with my G2 and some Dirt Grabbers on Steelies that I found in my bag. After it arrived I started to study the book - and started thinking how to get this in the way I want.... The 4-Door Toyota was sold to my friend before even opening the box. |

I am a chassis guy so this is the Plan I developped: * Leafunder/Spring Under in the Rear * 3-Link up front * Single Speed Tranny for more room |

Because the Body of the Topless D90 stayed in Hong Kong with the Hong Kong RC Defender Club I also had a Gelande 2 Chassis with parts at my disposable. For the leaf under setup I wanted to rotate the rear axle - but also swap the gears to have the same direction as in the front. After opening the Yota 1 and the Yota 2 it was clear that for my way of doing this I would need to use the Yota 2. It turned out very nice as the short shocks planed for the front of the TF2 LWB prove to be a perfect fit for the rear with my new setup. |

The 3-Link kit for the normal TF2 was not plug and play - It can be fitted - but I was not so happy with it. The D90 was allready parted out - so I decided to use the full steering, panhard and other bits from the G2. But then this happend: After a little research I found out that the 3-link Truss is mounted on a different location on Yota 1 and Yota 2 - but that turned out to be faster for me to change - then making a new link ;) |

Nice video! How do those tires hook up your running? Do you like them? I have been running the 1.55 and 1.9 RC4WD MTZ and love them, they would look killer under this 70 series body! |

Yes, beautiful hardbody truck, love the Aussie style traybacks too. Thanks for the scale video too. How about some body off shots with the technical details? |
