Tamiya 47394 Mountain Rider 1/10 Scale Hilux Replica Kit  [47394]

Retro Off-Roader with Real Drive Parts

The Tamiya 47394 Mountain Rider appeals to builders who want a scale truck with genuine mechanical detail. The kit mirrors the Toyota Hilux RN36 with an injection-moulded cab and bed, a realistic roll bar, and chrome style metal-plated wheels for that lifted look.

Authentic Chassis and Gearbox

Mounted on a ladder-frame chassis, the Mountain Rider provides a sturdy base for upgrades and maintenance. Its 3-speed transmission reproduces true gear selection behavior, offering 4WD only in first gear and 2WD in the higher ratios for a mix of traction and speed.

Robust Leaf Spring Suspension

Metal axle housings combined with leaf springs and shackles give the truck a rugged suspension setup intended for uneven ground. Die-cast axle housings house differentials front and rear to assist with controlled cornering over rough terrain.

Tribute to a Tough Pickup

The RN36 Hilux earned praise for its robust construction and off-road prowess. Large tyres and live axles were central to that reputation, and the Mountain Rider translates those features into a hands-on RC replica.

Tamiya 47394 Mountain Rider is ideal for hobbyists who value authentic scale mechanics and a build that rewards careful setup and testing.
