My first scale crawler Toyota Land Cruiser 40 CC-01 Kit
I ordered a Tamiya 1/10 Toyota Land Cruiser 40 CC-01 Kit
INCLUDES: 1/10 Tamiya Toyota Land Cruiser 40, oil-filled shocks, 540 motor,
electronic speed control, clear body, tires, wheels, LED light kit,
shock oil, 16 tooth pinion gear, spur gear, instructions
Can't wait till it arrives in the mail. I also ordered a set of bearings.

Will be posting progress here once the kit and bearings arrive in the mail.

RE: My first scale crawler Toyota Land Cruiser 40 CC-01 Kit
Much cooler than the cc-01 J**p!!! I really like the looks of the Tamiya FJ bodies. I am not so sure on how these wheel out of the box but for that price, they prolly need some work. Any one run a stock one with success? What do you "REALLY" have to do to these to make them trail worthy?
Nice purchase, let us know how this works for you in stock form.....What bearings did you order? I don't know much about these so i am assuming that the tranny is not utilizing bearings, but instead has bushings?
Nice looking FJ Lunchbox!

Any of my Tamiya kits - I just ordered generic ball bearing packages off ebay. So far been happy with results, nothing to expensive and it does the job.
Have to remember scale crawlers do not have all the crawling capabilities that an extreme crawler kit would have.
Lunchbox - are those TLT-1 wheels on yours?

Nice -
Can't wait til the kit arrives and start building.
I got an email today saying that my bearings will be shipped tomorrow. Hopefully get both before next weekend.

RE: My first scale crawler Toyota Land Cruiser 40 CC-01 Kit
Come on bearings!!!! Waiting to see what you think of the performance on this FJ....I am also wondering how the independent fronts will affect the way it wheels? I saw a few videos on youtube and it looks like it gets stuck pretty easy. Did I mention that I love the Tamiya bodies though? lol...i guess i could have a "grocery getter" rc fj40 too!
Please post pictures if you are able. Especially a detailed shot of the chassis and front suspension.
Peace,
Z

RE: My first scale crawler Toyota Land Cruiser 40 CC-01 Kit
Any progress on this yet? Where did you order your bearings from? The CC-01 is a great little rig with a ton of potential. I have one too and have added the GPM steering upgrade, Junfac 4 link kit and skid plate, custom rear shock mounting. If you need any help with the GPM steering rack let me know. It can be a pain the butt and you will need your dremel too. The links will rub on the steering skid plate on the inside. Also, make sure you have some loc-tite on hand as well. They do not send instructions with the kit...
Edit: Looks like this is a really old thread. Yikes!
