Product Description:

Build your own highly detailed custom big rig with the Tamiya 56344 Grand Hauler 1/14 Scale RC Tractor Truck Kit.

Inspired by customized North American semi trucks, the Grand Hauler features an extended ladder-frame chassis, sleeper-style cab, low-mounted body components and extensive chrome-plated detailing. Its impressive size and realistic construction make it an excellent choice for RC truck enthusiasts and scale-model builders.

The chassis uses aluminum side channels with reinforced resin cross members. A front-mounted 540-type brushed motor transfers power through a functional three-speed transmission to both rear axles. Built-in rear differentials allow smooth cornering, while metal leaf springs and aluminum friction dampers provide realistic suspension movement.

The hard-plastic body is supplied unpainted, allowing the builder to create a completely customized color scheme.
