[bonards29]

This build is a replica of my 2010 Fj CruiserTrail Teams.

Chassis - 2 sets of scx10
Axles - Rc4wd Yota axles
Drivetrain - Rc4wd 2 speed r3 transmission with mated hammer Transfer Case
Body - Nikko 1/10 scale fj cruiser
Suspension - Rc4wd shocks, Scratch built front ifs with cc01 lower control arms
Wheels - Vanquish products method 105 1.9 wheels
Tires - axial hankook dynapro tires converted to fit 1.9 wheels
Scratch built interior and engine bay from styrene.
Scratch built front bumper, rear bumper, sliders and skid plates from 3:16 brakeline and 22gauge steel plate.













The FJ has a box chassis which i copied using 2 sets of scx10 chassis with a lot of brazing and hammering.

My favorite part is the front suspension. Or maybe it's the detailed engine bay. Or maybe the chassis... The whole thing is my favorite part.
