Big Rig Presence with the Tamiya Grand Hauler 56356

The Tamiya Grand Hauler 56356 special release is ideal for modellers who want a strong visual and reliable mechanics. The kit echoes classic North American truck lines and comes with a pre-painted metallic black finish in Tamiya Color TS-40. The matte surface adds depth to the livery while keeping the build straightforward for those who prefer not to paint bodies.

Robust Frame and Suspension

The ladder frame features aluminum side channels paired with resin cross members to create a rigid but manageable chassis. Metal leaf springs and friction dampers replicate heavy truck behaviour, providing authentic articulation and a forgiving setup for regular driving sessions.

Transmission and On-Road Dynamics

A front-mounted motor and a 3-speed gearbox drive the twin rear axles, while the built-in differentials help maintain stability in corners. The kit accepts a 4-channel R/C system and a multi-function unit (both sold separately) so you can install lighting and sound systems to enhance realism.
