Overview of the Tamiya 58704 Land Cruiser 40 Quadtrack

The Toyota Land Cruiser has a long history as a tough, go-anywhere vehicle. The Land Cruiser 40 series is a classic 4WD icon, and Tamiya recreates it in 1/12 scale with the 58704 Toyota Land Cruiser 40 Pick-Up Quadtrack mounted on the GF-01FT chassis for hobbyists who value durability and style.

Classic Body with Track Mobility

This build swaps conventional wheels for compact track units, giving the model enhanced grip on mixed surfaces like dirt, packed snow, and loose gravel. The quadtrack layout changes handling characteristics and opens up new trail options compared with wheeled variants.

GF-01FT Chassis Features

At the core is the GF-01FT chassis with a gear-driven 4WD arrangement. A monocoque frame keeps the centrally positioned motor protected while power is routed through front and rear differentials. The square footprint, with matching wheelbase and tread, helps deliver predictable balance on uneven ground.

Adjustable Track Options

The Tamiya 58704 lets you choose between two track link styles: a flatter link for smoother rolling and a more aggressive tread for deeper bite. These choices let you tune traction and behaviour to match sand, mud, or hardpack conditions.

For model builders and trail runners wanting something different, the Tamiya 58704 Toyota Land Cruiser 40 Quadtrack combines a faithful body with a rugged chassis and track options that suit a range of outdoor surfaces.

Assembly suits hobbyists with some basic modelling experience; the kit includes clear instructions but involves small parts and drivetrain alignment that benefit from patience and basic tools.
Yes, the track link system is modular so you can replace individual links or swap between the flat and aggressive patterns to change ride height and traction.
A compact brushed or brushless motor suited to the GF-01FT motor mount, a mid-size electronic speed controller, and a low-profile receiver servo will fit neatly into the monocoque layout.
Tracks need periodic cleaning and inspection of links and sprockets; removing debris and checking for wear keeps performance consistent after off-road runs.
