Classic 80s Pickup Look Revived

Tamiya 58518 Super Clod Buster returned in the 2012 edition with a faithful homage to 1980s pickup styling. Chrome-like metal-plated details on the grille, bonnet intake and roll bar add scale realism to the body shell.

Dual Motor Torque and Gearbox Layout

The truck uses a twin-motor dual gearbox arrangement to drive all four wheels, giving strong low-end torque for loose or rocky surfaces. Eight coil-over spring dampers and oversized 165mm tires absorb impacts and keep traction on varied terrain. Four-wheel steering improves cornering in confined spaces.

Robust Monocoque Chassis and Suspension

A bathtub-type monocoque chassis provides a rigid platform for the front and rear trailing arm suspension. Sealed gearboxes fitted with differential gears ensure consistent power delivery and protect internal components from dirt.

Modern Control System and Motors

The kit replaces the original mechanical controller with a TEU-103BK electronic speed controller built for dual motor setups, and it ships with two 540 motors to handle demanding off-road use.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/10
  • Drivetrain: 4WD
  • Motors: Two 540 motors
  • ESC: TEU-103BK
  • Suspension: Front/rear trailing arm with 8 coil spring dampers
  • Tires: 165mm diameter
  • Chassis: Bathtub type monocoque

This kit suits modders and scale enthusiasts who want authentic looks combined with a beefy drivetrain and solid suspension for serious off-road play.

Intermediate hobby skills help, but careful reading of the manual lets many builders complete the kit without prior monster truck experience.
The factory 4-wheel steering geometry can be tuned with link adjustments and servo choice to suit your driving style.
Yes, the large hubs accept many aftermarket wheels and tyres, though check offset and overall diameter to avoid clearance issues.
Basic RC tools, small screwdrivers, pliers, and a set of hex drivers cover most assembly and routine maintenance tasks.
