Default RC4WD Toyota SR5 Xtracab by Leosworkshop

Hi

Another project is starting, thanks to RC4WD!

The company’s latest body and the TF2LWB chassis they also manufacture will be built. The parts needed to implement the completed plan are already on the way.
More pictures coming soon ...

Very Cool, I had one of those trucks in my 20's 5 speed. Can't wait to see what you do with this.

Hi

thanks everyone!!


A few parts have arrived, so I started ....

In the first round, rims, tires, a new skid plate, a new transfer case and a rear universal joint were installed.















even with a factory mount, but I put the body up...

Hi

I spent this afternoon refining the drive and "tuning" the chassis.

In every car that comes with 32pitch hangers, I replace it almost immediately with the usual 48Dp set. This will make the car's driving much smoother and more manageable.



In the first round I put it together with 87 - 19 gears.



I cut the clamping points of the leaf springs in the usual way and knocked them out with a rubber ring.



I also found the right configuration for the back




I think so much movement will be enough ....;)

The new bumper is also in place.

Hi

A little file here and there, an extra magnet and the roof of the machine already fits ...




I also found a new "heart" for the machine on the shelf ...

Truck looks really good. I may have missed it, but what kind of use will it see?
