Well it should be under 400 right? lol Nice looking. I thought I had beat the urge to buy one. Off to rehab I guess.

1.1 sport trac · 08-07-2007, 03:06 PM

the fj 40 body was discontinued a while ago but you can find the bushwhackerbody on tower which is a lot like it

the fj cruiser is found on ebay search for rc fj

dznutz · 08-20-2007, 08:05 PM

Is this the same FJ you bought?

or should I try getting the tyco one from walmart?

Trikster · 08-29-2007, 12:08 AM

I got my XC from Tower... Around $160 with a basic ESC. Just got mine today, waiting on bearings.

JasonInAugusta · 09-04-2007, 07:50 PM

I saw it run at Destroyers scale event last month and it was slow. I had a 65 turn in my FJ and it was a good bit slower than mine.

After seeing his with the gd 600 I will probably do the same.

Wow jason, that thing is freaking sweet. With the FJ shell did you have to do much modding to get it to fit? I wanna build a FJ40 scaler but don't wanna have to keep modding stuff.

Thanks

cartronicshn · 09-05-2007, 06:29 AM

JIA i did the same mod, only thing i used the JRH original outrunner on it, had to shave a little on the battery tray but the stick packs still fit

, i geared it with a 16 tooth pinion, and it is really slow now, and it doesn't get bound up anymore

, the torque is amazing, but you have to very careful with the throttle as you can break parts easily now.

i have really been looking into getting a CC-01, and i was wondering, is it possible to "lift" the suspesion by using say 1/8"-1/4" spacers and longer bolts where the suspension attaches to the chassis? kind of like how they do suspension lifts on real 1:1 IFS trucks?

and i think the FJ body looks great, it looks like it came from the factory like that!

Trikster · 11-17-2007, 08:42 PM

Ahh, where did all the pics go? I am just getting going on mine (finally got the insurance money from my fire and rebought my gear) but I am having a bear of a time with links and body mount... Please help!
