I had a Tundra, it looked great I fitted a Junfac kit and Gmade team zero shocks, I also had 1.9 beadlock alloy wheels and 110mm tyres on it. But as I said it looked great but it wouldn't climb anything and it rolled over more times than it was on its wheels.
So I sold it and bought this, it was a great kit to build and it goes almost anywhere you want it too.

A friend of mine ordered a Turnigy Trooper from Hobbykings HK Warehouse and got sung with £30 tax and charges. Hobbyking don't put a lower value on the label.

Looks awesome. How does it run offroad now with the Junfac parts?
I haven't had a chance to take it out yet, but even after removing the side steps I'm still getting a little bit of rubbing, I made a little obstacle course in the front room.
Maybe some slightly smaller tyres 100mm instead of the 110mm that are fitted.

This is the Tundra after a few runs I realised that it wasn't the best off road so I fitted a Junfac kit including steering, Gmade Zero shocks, 1.9 beadlock alloy wheels and 110mm tyres this is the result.
Much better, but since taking these pictures I have had to remove the side steps to stop rubbing.

This is the one I use in my Tundra with a standard can and it is brilliant. Well worth the money, cones with a programme box as well.

I'm thinking of getting a Junfac kit for my Tundra, has anyone got one and are they worth the money?
The next question is what size shock do you use with the kit and what size wheels and tyres.
1.9 or 2.2 wheels?
96, 108 or 118 tyres?
Sorry for the noob questions, but I am a noob when it comes to crawlers.

So I've been told it rare and valuable .

The Lego trailer I built for it.
I set myself a task of building it from stuff I already had and this is my creation, it tows quite well.

I'm in the process of building a Tamiya Tundra and I want to build a trailer to tow my Sand Scorcher, Ford Ranger or Super Hotshot. So I wanted to see how you guys have your tow hitches attached to your crawlers.
You can also post pics of your trailers as well.

What stick controller would you guys recommend to use with a 3 speed Tamiya.
Can anyone suggest one that the left stick throttles but is springy or can be converted to be springy easily.

If you're going to strip the whole body use Wilkos paint stripper.
I stripped the body on my Vintage Ford Ranger body (which I was very nervous about) and I've also done my 2010 Sand Scorcher, both times I had no problems at all brought them up really clean.
Just washed them off with cold water and they were ready to paint.

I think this pic from my mate's build thread shows the issue nicely:
As you can see, the metal diff pinion has a longer shank than the plastic one. From what I gather, if you file it down to about the same length, it won't bind.
Thank you all sorted now runs perfectly.

The other thing, do you have a controller for a 3 speed truck?
If not this guy is a great person to deal with.
