Heritage Meets Hobby: Tamiya 58589-60A Land Cruiser 40 Pick-Up

The Tamiya 58589-60A Toyota Land Cruiser 40 Pick-Up recreates the rugged profile of the original Land Cruiser in a compact 1/12 scale kit. Built on the GF-01 chassis, it offers a faithful look along with a chassis layout aimed at balanced off-road performance.

GF-01 Chassis Evolution

Unlike earlier 2WD sport models, the GF-01 brings a full 4WD drivetrain with a centrally mounted motor to even out power delivery between front and rear gearboxes. This improves stability on loose or uneven ground compared with two wheel drive platforms.

Authentic Styling and Durable Running Gear

The clear polycarbonate body mirrors the Land Cruiser 40 Pick-Up lines and pairs with double wishbone suspension on all four corners. The metal-look 5-spoke wheels and wide 110mm tyres provide grip and presence suitable for trail sessions or yard use.

Ready to Customize

Supplied with a 540 Torque Tuned motor, the kit needs a 2-channel radio, an ESC and a 7.2V battery to be completed. Once fitted, builders can fine tune gear ratios and clearance to suit slow technical runs or faster trail driving.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/12
  • Drive-train: 4WD
  • Suspension: Independent double wishbone
  • Motor: 540-brushed type
  • Body Material: Polycarbonate
  • ESC: Not Included

The Tamiya 58589-60A Toyota Land Cruiser 40 Pick-Up is well suited to builders who enjoy period-correct scale looks with a chassis that invites setup changes.

A basic 2-channel radio system is sufficient for steering and throttle, but consider a unit with adjustable endpoints to fine tune servo travel and throttle response.
The included 540 Torque Tuned motor gives strong low speed torque, and you can upgrade to other 540 variants for different RPM or power characteristics depending on your driving style.
The kit is specified for a 7.2V pack; if you consider LiPo use, ensure voltage and ESC compatibility and fit appropriate battery straps and connectors for safe installation.
