This chassis features a tough ladder frame with aluminum side channels and resin crossmembers, 4-link suspension with aluminum rods, a 4WD system with lockable differentials, massive off-road tires with sidewall tread pattern, and dependable beadlock wheels. The body is of course accurately reproduced in durable polycarbonate material, giving fans a superbly capable rock crawler with scale realism.

The Land Cruiser 40

Toyota's Land Cruiser 4x4s are known throughout the world for their legendary off-road ability. Toyota began production of the Land Cruiser in 1950, and the Land Cruiser 40 that was made from 1960 to 1984 in particular was an exceptional long-seller. Even now, this classic 4x4 still has a large following. The distinctive body styling is highlighted by the oval radiator grille, turn signals on the front fenders, and rear corner windows. With its reputation as a dependable and durable vehicle, many are still earning their keep in harsh conditions and it is the vehicle of choice for many real life rock crawling competition drivers.

Features

• Unique oval-shaped grille is separately-molded and separately available LEDs can be installed for realistic headlights.

• Corner windows are just like the actual car, and separately available LEDs can be installed to the tail light positions.
