what did you use for the inner fenders? They look like coffee cup lids. Thanks for so many pics, I keep wondering if I want to build an SCX chassis for my Yota body, I'm just not sure about the axle width but yours looks great with the white hummer wheels.

For the inner fender...order a Nachos from Taco Bell and walla! My wife ordered one before I got my scx10 and I though I should keep em for some use some day on some rc...it turned out to be this hilux... Need two trays to complete a car. They are really soft and easy to trim and readily available! |

question for you, where does one get those magnets??? I don't know much about magnets other than they stick to fridges! I am working on mounting my hilux body this week and this would be a hell of alot easier than what I have in mind! |

I got my magnets from ebay they have certain sellers that specialize in selling these magnets... You can also get the same neo magnets from craft stores like Michael's, Hobby Lobby or Joann's. I am still not satisfied with the height of the body, being that I can see too much chassi sticking out below. Gonna remove all the stock shock hoops and make my own aluminum ones, which would be lower. |

Do you have any picture at full arc ? And what did you do to lower the body even more ? THX |

Those Tamiya bodies are great looking! The black Hummer rims and crushers looked great! I am not much of a Toyota fan but your build looks great and may have converted me Awsome pictures as well!

| What is full arc? Is it full articulation? let me know so I can take some pics. I cut the pieces that was holding the body mounts and glued them lower in the shock hoops...will take some pics when I get a chance....

Yes ... full articulation .. I was just a bit short of time I'm planning to drop my body so low that the shocks are a little bit in the way so I will have to relocate them completely. |
