Building an RC: Axial SCX10 III Toyota 4Runner TRD 1991 (Time Lapse)

- This is a time lapse build of a custom Axial SCX10 III Jeep JLU Wrangler Kit adapted to a 1991 Toyota 4Runner TRD concept. The completed build results are shown at the end of the video.
A very special thanks to Paul Willhite from Axial and Pro-Line Racing for providing the kit, some Pro-Line Racing parts, and extra parts for the build. Early this year Paul got in touch and we talked about the idea of me building an Axial kit. So, I can’t stress enough how thankful I am to Paul and his team over at Axial/Pro-Line Racing for giving me the opportunity to work on an SCX10 III. Paul, this kit is dedicated to you and the team! Check out their website:

www.prolineracing.com/
I’d also like to thank Sheref (Reef’s RC) for sending me the servos needed (and horns). Their impressive servos are a perfect match for this build. This build uses the RAW500HD and a couple of 99:Micro servos. Check out their servos:

And finally, the Axial and RC crawler groups on FB for helping me out when I had questions!

This build experience was a favorite of mine and I enjoyed it a lot, especially because of the capability and popularity of the SCX10 III, and its transmission design-a 2-speed with a separate dig function. I chose to install both of them. And of course, the SCX10 III is one of the top crawlers to have and try. I like the quality of the parts and the build went smoothly without issues. The kit also seems to be a newer revision(?) based on some of the gears (doesn't seem to have square ends anymore for the pin inserts) and the servo mount in the kit I received didn't need any trimming.
As for the body, I always wanted to do a truck themed version of Keiichi Tsuchiya iconic old school Hot Version Toyota AE86 N2 TRD, and so I thought it would be ideal for this build. His AE86 is extra special as he brought the car to the late legendary engine designer/engineer Shinichiro Sakurai of TRD to work on. And in a sea of many Jeep crawler bodies, I chose Pro-Line Racing’s 1991 Toyota 4Runner body to be different. The body paint was the most challenging part since I’m not a body painter. But in the end, I was happy with the result.
I haven’t spent as much crawl time with the truck yet and it probably deserves a dedicated video. In the right hands it'll be exciting to see how it performs around tough obstacles.
And as always many thanks to you, the viewer, for the support and taking the time to watch my videos! Hope to hear from all of you in the comments section.

WOW Amazing job! - Reef
Thanks, Reef and REEF's RC! Hope you like it and thanks again for letting me use your servos for this build!
So… you’re an artist, engineer, cinematographer, storyteller and down right genius RC builder… congratulations. You deserve all the credit you get. 👌🏻
Thanks again, James! I truly appreciate it and thank you for watching!
Ditto what James👈 said 🤓👍👍👍👍
@@coool1672 Thanks! And thank you for watching.
This video still amazes me a year later... And helped me make the plunge into building an RC car again. 10 years out of the hobby. and i'm already plunging into the deep end.
Hands down the best looking crawler I've ever seen.
Thanks, Alan! I appreciate the comment and thank you for watching.
I've probably built about a dozen RC kits in my life and I am rarely impressed by someone else's work but this build is something like I've never see. I aspire to be able to build kits at half the level of this man. Very impressive.
Best 4Runner custom body I have ever seen by far. Awesome job buddy.
Thanks! And thank you for watching.
that thing is BUILT ! the most realistic scale representation in 1/10th scale ever. I am grinch green with envy and considerably less hairy.
Wow, Absolutely amazing build from start to finish.
You’re my worldwide favorite RC cars builder.
Big salut from France 🇫🇷
ViNZ.
ViNZ, Merci! Thank you for the words and watching. I appreciate it :).
Hands down the coolest build ever. Very cool livery, rare to see drifting and crawling enthusiasts meet like that
Thanks! Glad you noticed :)! Thank you for watching.
Welcome to the world of RC Crawling! Nice job on all aspects. Looking forward to seeing many more.
Thanks! I appreciate the feedback, still learning and it's entirely a different and new thing for me. Quite an exciting genre.
This would be a shelf queen for me. I’d be afraid I’d get a single scratch on this beauty
What can i say ...yet another masterpiece 😎
HIs attention to detail is truly amazing.
Thanks, Dark Storm. I appreciate the comment and thanks for watching.
Unbelievable…some algorithm brought me here…I’m left in stunned silence…outstanding build!
Thanks, Joshua Spence! I appreciate the comment and thanks for watching.
Man. It’s not just your artistic talent and creativity with these builds. Everything about this video is a masterpiece. Watching your videos makes me feel calm and content in a way I can’t describe. Thank you.
Thanks, Galactus Galan! Thanks for the kind feedback and glad it calms and makes you content :)!
What an amazing build and video. I've built this 10.3 also and yours seems so much better lol. Since watching your videos my builds and build areas have been more organized. You're very inspiring
Love your build style! Heavy static modeling influence with RC as the platform. Just too beautiful to scratch!
Thanks, bcochener! I appreciate the feedback and thanks for watching!
The only bad thing about your videos is not enough time spent on the completed builds! Add another minute or two of letting us drool over the builds please. Amazing as usual.
Thanks again, RadicalTurkey! I'll try to extend some of the clips next time. Just in case, there are more towards the end. Thank you for watching!
Super nice build. Top quality upgrades from the Holmes brushed motor all the way down to the MIP driveshafts 👍
People who buy pre-built cars will never know the pure joy you feel knowing you built it from a box of parts !
Thanks for watching! :) I quite agree, and it helps one learn more about the vehicle. But, I guess to each their own.
Absolutely stunning! You do amazing work.
Thanks, Andrew Caldrewood! I appreciate the nice comment and thanks for watching!
DETAILGASM! Cannot help but comment on how beautiful your build turn out to be!
Thanks, Eric! Thank you for watching and sorry for the late response
imo, you're the best RC Builder ive seen on YT.
Masters Degree In RC Cars.
Thanks again, Alice Malt!

Thanks, Wrench Turner! And thank you for watching.

One of the best looking crawlers I have ever seen! 👍🏼
Thanks, DutchMercenary gaming! I appreciate the comment and thanks for watching.

Beautifully done, loving the vibe. 😎
Thanks, HBGEB! And thank you for watching.
WTF buddy! Thats so sick, I want my 2nd gen to look like that 😵🙃
Thanks, Jason Foo! And thank you for watching.
Holy crap! You’re an absolute master! So beautiful! Definitely going to amp up my game seeing some of your methods!
I thought I was OCD about my builds, this dude at another level. Just ordered that hand drill..
Thanks! And thank you for watching.
this was an incredible build
My two favorite things to watch, bike building and this too.
Thanks! And thank you for watching.
Gorgeous build man, always love to see your work, you never fail to deliver a beautiful result. Thank you!
Thanks, Glide Club! I appreciate the nice words and thanks for watching!
Amazing work and detail. Wow
Thanks! And thank you for watching.
wow, one of the most beautiful builds i've ever seen
Thanks, Oman RC Crawlers! I appreciate the comment and thanks for watching.
I've just been getting into the RC world and blown away by everyone's details and dedication. This was a great build and that was definitely the right vehicle to choose. Your really great like everyone has started. I'll be watching more, keep up the great work.
Thanks, Bryan Trosper! I appreciate the nice words and thank you for watching! Hope you're enjoying the RC hobby!
I’ve been getting into it because I want to try to see if I can make one. 😩😭 I just need to get a better idea of what I need to buy and where.
Wow...just wow. The attention to detail is insane, 100 percent the coolest build I've ever seen . Amazing job!!
Thanks, Isaac Clifford! I appreciate the comment and thank you watching!
If your models look like this I’d love to see your daily driver as you have a eye for detail that’s rare
That's the greatest rc build I've seen ever. The best part was, no deflections in any of the wheels/tires when it was rolling. That rc must drive like a dream!
Well done and inspiring as well.
I have an older scx10 II. Now I'm gonna build me a III.
Thanks, Vah-ming Moua! And thank you for watching. I believe those 10IIs are amazing as well! Good luck with the 10III build.
@@MechanicAfterHours your video shows you picking the hardwares out of small boxes. Are those separate from the actual kit?
I have never built any RC just always just gotten RTR's, but you made it look so professional. I have picked up so many techniques from just watching you!
Thanks! The kit comes with the proper screws but I didn't use them as I have some stainless ones that I decided to use instead. This build has a number of aftermarket mods (gears and parts). But, I always put the parts in labeled plastic containers-just makes it more organized and faster at least for myself. Good luck if you ever build a kit, just take your time!
WOW what a beautiful TOYOYA 4TRUNNER TRD 1991 IT LOOKS SUPER CUTE👌
Thanks, Michael Tejeda! And thank you for watching.
This is one epic build man. I'm just WOW!

It’s crazy to watch this when I’m building up my 1995 4runner

Beautiful as per usual.

Thanks, Yanu surya! And thank you for the support and watching.
What an art, awesome! I love it
Incredible. I absolutely love this generation of the 4Runner, and you have done it justice for sure! I am slowly getting to the end of the catalog of your videos, and almost sad. Looking forward to more. Cheers
Thanks, retro | reborn! I appreciate the kind feedback and support! Sorry, I haven't had a video lately, things just got quite busy outside of the hobby. But I'm finishing up one build and it should be up in a week. And still have a fair number to build. Stay tuned!
Thumbs way up, love it!!
Gosh darn it mechanic, now I wanna do a custom build like you do
Thanks! Haha! I highly recommend doing it ;)

Great piece of art and craftsmanship. I love Toyota also, so I can appreciate that for sure. Those red and black rims are by far the best looking also. Not even close. With the krawler ka to match its perfect. More crawlers please!!!!! Trx4 next in a Tacoma 4th gen body. (3d printed). Would be amazing! Keep up the great work.
