Default My Scx24 Yota

I Guys,

New project .. Scx24 plus Hilux 1:20 body from AMT



I moved the 'attacks of the front shock using a bracket of a servo fixed in 2 points



I have relocated the rear shock absorbers, now they work much better .. I used 2 mm forex that gives support to the frame.
I left the original springs adding some springs, cut very short, harder .. we will see with the weight of the bodywork how they behave ..



I have added brass spacers



Tire change .. I have inside some nice Super Swamper TSL Bogger mounted on Micro Losi plastic beadlock rim painted .. They are at 20gr full wheel against 10gr of the stock ones.





I placed the battery in the center
To lock the body, I added Velcro to the rear and magnets to the front hidden in the engine compartment that grip directly on the iron of the frame.
I changed the bumper .. Now ARB style.



After removing some material, the bodywork now sits as low as possible and rests on the chassis, both front and rear.





Color .. I chose a Tamiya Mica Red, I wanted something metallic ..





I replaced the servo with an Emax ES08MD



I finished the bumper, painted semi gloss black, added spotlights









That's all for now..

Looks great!
Thanks a lot!

New rims ..



I put the Super Swampers, they are narrower and a couple of mm smaller than the Mickey Thompsons ..



A few more details ..
I created the lightest possible interior, used 2mm forex, 0.5mm styrene, static kit pieces, the body and arms from a Fujimi kit and the helmet from the Deadbolt. Still to be painted and defined ..





Defined the roll-bar with lights and aluminum clamps for both the lights and the fire extinguisher ..





Added some stickers ..





That's all for now ..

Looking really good! I really love that Toyota kit. My first real build was a Toyota like that, but on a Losi trail trekker platform. Nice job!

I painted the interior, added the windshield and wipers .. I would say the project is over ..





upload images to web



Outdoor test. Very satisfied, it moves well and the shocks have a very realistic movement thanks to the weight.
