I am missing the building bug. The only Tamiya that comes close to what I might like is a Unimog. I’m really waiting for a more interesting body on the CC02 but nothing seems to be forthcoming. The Merc is a no no so maybe get the Unimog and source a Bronco body. Are there any obvious upgrades from stock apart from steel pinion, bearings and tyres. What are the shocks and springs like?

Ball bearings are a must. It has oil filled shocks similar to the comical line. I did do the steel driveshaft upgrade. I installed the part to lock the rear diff, but left the front diff unlocked so I did not have issues on the road while turning. It did come with a light kit.

Steel pinion and ball bearings, like any other tamiya, is all that's needed......

To be more competent I would say an esc with a good drag brake helps transform performance when climbing, my cc-02 has the crawler 1080 esc which is superb
