looks like currently no one has any update modding their Pajeros. I'm sure they're all sitting pretty on shelves now.

I'd like to put LEDs on mine but perhaps during this year-end off days. Or put it on the Wrangler body...not sure yet.

Life with RC is great!

I have finally added rec channels metal axle and front suspension kit the axle looks amazing! only the front suspension is a bit sloppy but dont really matter on this sort of vehicle, got there wheels to which are very nice now all i need to do is paint the body lol, I have tlu-01 leds for front lights but cant do rears unless going to start cutting it about etc.

Im going to try and mod mine like the wrangler in the recent rc car action crawling special, the used prolines and some rc 4wd scale shocks looked great!

Thanks

Still very much running mine, life to an old thread!!

Front suspension modded for more travel, 65t motor, front bumper mod, front LED's, rear diff locked (front open just as I like a little challenge) full LED's in the front, Integy alloys and Rock Cruiser Tires. Just ordered a GPM steering kit to take out the steering slop, and an HPI GRU to really bring down the wheelspeed. Still a little too fast for scale running.

Thank you - one if my favorites! Still have some work to go, it's always a work in progress...

I did, and i just installed it last night. Tightens up the steering a but, but it's still a little floppy. Better than it was, and far more solid feeling overall. This is all bench testing, haven't had it out on the trail yet. Just based off initial impressions, I do recommend it.

Mine to want mine set up for slow crawls not major crawling but just light stuff! how does HPI gru unit work? any pics?

Thanks

Don't know, don't have it in yet - when I do, I'll get some pics. It will drop the speed to below walking speed, only good for a rock truck really.

Nice to see some action on this board. I have long since sold all my CC-01's off but now I am looking to start again! I like the GPM steering hop up, have one already just dont have a truck to put it on.

I also like the RC Channel stuff, very cool but wow spendy. Now just need to decide which flavor of CC-01 to get...

Old rides...

Old_School_RC_1 · #**1735** 12-20-2009, 08:56 AM

very nice, the jero platform is great! Very capable and easily modded.

Thanks

Yes, wish Tamiya put rear LED slots in Pajero. At least Wrangler has a pair. Anyway, hope Tamiya continues making hardbodies like before, not just poly/lexans.

Happy holidays.

Hi Doomed
is the chassis wheelbase of the new CC01 Land Cruiser the same length as that of Honda CRV or Touareg (longer version)?

Thanks and Happy holidays

Old_School_RC_1 · #**1740** 12-25-2009, 11:12 PM

yes, the LC is the long WB set-up. Bronco body fits this as well!

Doomed · #**1741** 12-30-2009, 12:45 AM

Alright bad news is the kits not coming because of reasons I wont get into here.

Now I am looking for a used CC-01 or kit #49490, the Pajero wide...

Doomed · #**1742** 01-02-2010, 12:24 AM
