Tamiya 1/10 4WD Toyota Hilux BRUISER (RN36) RC KIT
This electric R/C assembly kit reproduces the 4WD Toyota Hilux Pick-Up (RN36), which enjoyed wide popularity in the US and Japan during the 1980s and is still adored by many fans today. The model features a ladder frame like the actual vehicle, Type 540 motor, 3-speed transmission, and an abundance of metal parts for a high level of realism. Its live axle suspension features metal axle housings, leaf springs, and oil dampers while a metal front under guard helps the model take on tough off-road conditions. A highly detailed injection-molded body and large 123mm diameter tires also gives the model a stylish, high-lift appearance.
About the Toyota Hilux Pick-Up
The 3rd generation Toyota Hilux Pick-up (30/40 Series) debuted in 1978 and the RN36 model was developed specifically for export markets. It featured a sporty, lightweight body and was powered by a 98hp 1,968cc 4-cylinder gasoline engine. Furthermore, its live axle suspension featured front leaf spring shackles located towards the rear to provide sufficient approach/departure angles for superb off-road performance. Front/rear flared fenders and large tires gave the truck a tall, aggressive stance. The RN36 model was mainly exported to North America but was also later sold in Japan, and there are still many fans of this pick-up to this day.

Overall length = 525 mm The photo shows the kit assembled and painted.
Equipped with a metal under guard on the front. The knuckle has a highly dustproof structure like the actual vehicle.
The front and rear wheel hubs are made of high-strength die-cast.
The prefabricated 3-speed transmission has a built-in planetary gear to optimize the gear ratio. Smooth shift changes are possible by combining resin gears with metal dog clutches and shift forks.
The front and rear axle housings are made of lightweight and strong aluminum die-cast, and are equipped with differential gears inside.
Power is transmitted from the transfer at the rear of the mission to the front wheels via the universal shaft.
The chassis configuration, which uses a lot of metal parts and is full of realism, is a lot of fun to assemble.
