Overview
The KILLERBODY TOYOTA LAND CRUISER LC70 HARDBODY is a premium hard body kit designed for 1/10 scale RC rock crawlers and scale enthusiasts who demand authentic styling and precision engineering. This impressive body shell captures the iconic look of the classic Toyota Land Cruiser 70-series, delivering scale realism that transforms your RC car into a stunning replica of one of the world's most legendary off-road vehicles. Whether you're building a competition-grade crawler, a weekend basher, or a display-quality scale model, this hard body kit provides the foundation you need to create a truly authentic build that turns heads at the track or on the trail.
Manufactured by Killer Body, a recognised brand in the RC hobby community, this hard body kit is specifically engineered for the Traxxas TRX-4 chassis, one of the most popular platform choices for serious RC rock crawler enthusiasts in the UK. The LC70 body is supplied unpainted in white, giving you complete freedom to customise the finish to match your vision, whether that's a factory-accurate colour scheme or something more creative. With a generous 323mm wheelbase and 225mm width, this body offers the extended platform required for authentic scale proportions and improved weight distribution on longer-wheelbase chassis setups.
If you're searching for an RC car UK that combines scale authenticity with proven compatibility and outstanding build quality, the KILLERBODY TOYOTA LAND CRUISER LC70 HARDBODY is an excellent choice for anyone serious about creating a professional-grade scale RC crawler.
Key Features
- Hard Body Construction with Pedal Detail — The body includes intricately moulded pedal detail on the driver's side, adding a layer of scale authenticity that separates high-quality replicas from basic shells. This attention to detail is essential for scale-focused builds and competition displays.
- Matching Wheel Arches — Supplied wheel arches (KB48715 front and rear) complement the body lines and provide the correct scale proportions around the wheels, ensuring a cohesive, finished appearance that looks professional from every angle.
- Steel Mounting Hardware — The kit includes stainless steel mounting hardware (KB48710) specifically designed for secure, reliable installation on the TRX-4 chassis, eliminating guesswork and ensuring proper alignment and durability.
- White Unpainted Finish — Supplied in white without factory paint, this body offers flexibility for custom finishing. You can paint it to match specific real-world Land Cruiser colour schemes, apply custom graphics, or leave it white for a clean, modern aesthetic.
- Complete Interior Details — The body includes a fully detailed interior with a moulded steering wheel, dashboard panels, mirrors (both side and interior), door grills, wipers and air intake details, all contributing to a highly authentic scale appearance when viewed through the polycarbonate windows.
- Chromed Accent Parts — Multiple chromed components including front and rear light buckets, fog light buckets, radiator grille (top and bottom), oilcan, doorknob, antenna and car badge add genuine scale detail and realistic light reflection.
- Transparent Polycarbonate Windows — The kit features a PC transparent windshield and full PC dashboards, allowing viewers to see the detailed interior whilst protecting the body from impacts during use.
- Comprehensive Decal Sheets — Three sets of detailed decals are supplied: a body decal sheet, dashboard decal sheet and gilt decorative decal sheet, enabling you to add authentic graphics and finishing touches that enhance the scale appearance.
- Long Wheelbase Design — At 323mm wheelbase, this body is specifically proportioned for extended-platform crawlers, providing authentic scale length and improving weight distribution and handling characteristics on longer chassis setups.
- Proven TRX-4 Compatibility — Engineered specifically for the Traxxas TRX-4 chassis, this body integrates seamlessly with one of the most popular and proven rock crawler platforms available in the UK hobby market.
Technical Performance
The KILLERBODY TOYOTA LAND CRUISER LC70 HARDBODY represents a significant investment in scale authenticity and construction quality. Manufactured from durable hard plastic for the main body panels, the shell is engineered to withstand the demands of regular RC use whilst maintaining dimensional accuracy and structural integrity. The body dimensions of 323mm wheelbase and 225mm width are precisely calibrated to deliver authentic scale proportions when mounted on the Traxxas TRX-4 chassis, a proven platform that combines genuine rock-crawling capability with excellent build quality. The inclusion of polycarbonate (lexan) transparent windows and dashboards protects the detailed interior whilst allowing full visibility of the scale details within. Chrome-plated accents provide realistic light reflection and authentic appearance, whilst the comprehensive array of moulded interior components—including steering wheel, mirrors, door grills, wipers and air intake—creates a level of scale detail that justifies this as a premium body kit rather than a basic shell. The body is supplied unpainted and requires painting and assembly to finish, allowing you to control the final aesthetic completely. The stainless steel mounting hardware ensures corrosion resistance and long-term durability, essential for a body shell that may be exposed to outdoor conditions during RC adventures. This is a body kit that rewards careful assembly and finishing work with results that stand out at any scale-focused event or display.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will this body fit the Traxxas TRX-4 chassis? — Yes, the KILLERBODY TOYOTA LAND CRUISER LC70 is engineered specifically for the Traxxas TRX-4 and is the recommended platform for this body kit. The 323mm wheelbase and 225mm width are precisely proportioned to work with the TRX-4's suspension geometry and mounting points, ensuring perfect fitment and optimal appearance.
- Is this body kit suitable for beginners? — This body kit is better suited to builders with intermediate or advanced experience. The assembly process involves fitting numerous detailed interior components, mounting multiple decal sheets accurately, and careful painting and finishing work. Beginners should be prepared for a multi-step assembly process and may benefit from the included instruction sheet, which provides detailed guidance on fitment and finishing.
- Does this kit come painted? — No, the body is supplied unpainted in white. This gives you complete control over the final finish, allowing you to paint it to match specific real-world Land Cruiser colour schemes or create custom designs. The polycarbonate components (windows, dashboards and light lenses) come with pre-painted finishes as specified in the kit contents.
- What makes the KILLERBODY LC70 different from other body kits? — The KILLERBODY LC70 stands out for its exceptional attention to scale detail, including a fully detailed interior with steering wheel, mirrors, dashboard components and air intake, chromed accent parts for realistic light reflection, comprehensive decal sheets for authentic graphics, pedal detail with anti-skid plate, and inclusion of matching wheel arches that complete the authentic appearance. These features combine to deliver scale realism that justifies its position as a premium hard body kit in the 1/10 RC crawler market.
- What chassis options are compatible with this body? — The body is engineered specifically for the Traxxas TRX-4 chassis, which is the primary recommended platform. With the 323mm wheelbase and 225mm width, it may fit other long-wheelbase rock crawler chassis, but the TRX-4 remains the officially supported and proven platform for this body kit.
- What paint should I use on this body? — Use acrylic or polycarbonate paint formulated specifically for lexan (polycarbonate), as standard paints may damage the plastic shell. Many RC-specific paint brands offer suitable colours and primers. Apply paint in thin, even coats and allow proper drying time between coats. Consider applying a protective clear coat after painting for durability.
- Does this kit include a chassis? — No, this is a hard body kit only and does not include a chassis. You will need a separate Traxxas TRX-4 chassis (or compatible platform) to create a complete RC crawler. The body kit provides all necessary body panels, interior details, decals, hardware and mounting components needed to install the body on a compatible chassis.
- Is this available in other colours? — The kit is supplied in white, unpainted. However, because it comes unpainted, you can finish it in any colour you choose through custom painting, allowing you to replicate specific real-world Land Cruiser colour schemes or create unique custom designs that reflect your personal preferences.
