Overview of the Tamiya 58372-53957 High-Lift 4x4 for trail use

The Tamiya High-Lift 4x4 combines scale authenticity with functional features introduced in 2006 and still valued today. Fitted with the optional MFC-02 Multi-Function Unit, the model provides coordinated light, sound and vibration effects that enhance both running and presentation.

Customisable lamp and marker setup

With up to 33 bright LEDs, you can configure front and rear lighting, indicators and accessory illumination to match real truck layouts. A demo mode also helps when showing the model at events or in a collection case.

Real vehicle audio cues

The built-in speaker plays 24 recorded sounds that replicate various engine and system noises. These audio cues add a convincing layer to each run, from idle throbs to acceleration notes.

Function mapping and feel

Use a 4-channel transmitter to access up to 16 programmable functions, reproducing many of the operations you expect in a pickup. The vibration feedback increases immersion and helps sense engine and terrain interaction.

Market comparison with similar pickups

Against kits such as the Ford F-350, the High-Lift stands out for its functional range provided by the Multi-Function Unit. While some rivals focus on body accuracy, this kit emphasises interactive control and realism on the move.

Specifications

  • Model scale: 1/10
  • Drivetrain: 4WD
  • Gearbox: 3-Speed
  • Included motor: Type 540
  • LEDs supported: Up to 33 LEDs
  • Preset sounds: 24 types

For hobbyists who want both authentic looks and interactive running features, the Tamiya High-Lift 4x4 delivers an engaging blend of display quality and functional realism.

Yes, the 4WD layout and durable chassis cope well with smooth trails and packed dirt. Avoid deep mud or water without sealing and protective measures for electronics.
A quality NiMH or compatible LiPo pack with correct voltage and capacity will give reliable run times and stable lighting and sound operation. Check balance leads and mounting space before fitting LiPo packs.
Tamiya has long-term support for many of its kits. Replacement body parts, gears and electronics are commonly available through specialist suppliers and online hobby stores.
Use foam or silicone padding between the body and chassis, tighten body mounts evenly and check that LED and speaker wiring is secured away from moving components.
