Do any of these kits have a solid rear axle like the tamiya pajero? Im looking to make a rock crawler but the pajero is discontinued. it had independant front suspension with a solid axle rear. Please only post if you are sure. If possible chassis shots would be great! :) Thanks! If none of these work i plan on using a tlt as the base.

Why dont you buy a Clod Buster or TXT-1 and make a Rock Crawler, it way better performing.

the f-150, and i beleive the hummer are based of the old TA-02 chassis. Pre-set pinion holes for perfect mesh, 4 wheel ind. suspension, ect. The tires look incredibly scale, hook decent, but to do anything crawler related, would be a lost cause.
Think rally car, thats the old TA02.
