|  FJ40 build by DMG
This will be the build thread for my DMG built FJ40 scaler/TT. After i saw the FJ40's built by kaetwo and RPMJ i knew i wanted to have an FJ40 built. After seeing the scale tuber Jerry built for Team3six i knew he was the man for the job. Will have 2.2 roklox rc4wd GRU and killer T case. rc4wd 110mm shocks. not sure on wheels yet. Here is the first bit of progress pictures jerry sent me.    |

Looks like a killer build! I'm curious about the drivetrain you have planned and would like to do something similar. Which ratio GRU? Gearing? Motor wind? Thanks in advance  |

The GRU is a 16:1 gear ratio and the Case is a 1:1 ratio. Not sure on a motor yet. | |

No doubt it will be nice. I still have to finish my Hilux/SCX10 that Jerry did up for me. Just need to find the time. Looking forward to following this one.
