Tamiya Suzuki Jimny Wide GF-01

Recommended Posts

I'm having a New Year clear out, first up is my Tamiya Suzuki Jimny Wide GF-01, widened using new TL-01B arms and full metal driveshafts.

Built with new parts, see through chassis, fully ballraced, CVA shocks, Only run for the videos linked below.

Will sell as bare roller without wheels/tyres for £80 posted or to an agreed spec up to RTR with basic 2.4ghz radio gear, brushed or brushless. No battery though.

Just looked at your post, looks pretty cool! I've been thinking about putting the wider arms on my dump truck.

I have the same kind of motor, same KV and finned. It works really well in this chassis, a tiny bit of cogging if you try to make a slow start but otherwise it's great, good torque (but not as gear splitting as a full 540) max speed is about perfect for every day use and it lasts ages too. Even back in the summer it wasn't getting hugely hot after 30-40 minute beach sessions. Excellent little motor. Cost me about £8 too!

Thanks the wide conversion is a must do in my opinion, I've done my Konghead also, much less tippy.

If your interested I'm sure we can work something out with a conversion kit for your dump truck, PM me if so ;)

Furthermore if anyone is interested in anything from this car get in touch.
