Authentic lorry scale work from the MAN TGX 18.540 4x2 XLX

The Tamiya 56329 MAN TGX 18.540 4x2 XLX offers meticulous exterior lines and a mechanically faithful layout for 1/14 scale lorry enthusiasts. It suits modellers who want both appearance and function.

Robust frame and genuine gearshift feel

The two-axle ladder frame gives the model a solid backbone while the 3-speed transmission provides realistic gear change behaviour. Metal leaf springs and friction dampers emulate true suspension characteristics under load.

Serviceable cab and towing compatibility

The forward-tilting cab grants easy access to the internals for maintenance and upgrades. The working fifth wheel and rubber tyres make authentic trailer coupling straightforward with any Tamiya 1/14 trailer unit.

Standard motor with upgrade potential

Fitted with a 540-type brushed motor for dependable running, the kit also accepts a range of hop-up parts for those looking to boost performance or longevity over time.

For builders seeking a realistic lorry project, the MAN TGX 18.540 4x2 XLX from Tamiya balances scale accuracy with a satisfying build and practical running characteristics.

Verify servo centring and linkage settings, check gearbox engagement and ensure all fasteners are tight. Confirm battery polarity and transmitter settings before powering up.
Reinforced metal suspension parts, stronger drive shafts and upgraded servos are typical upgrades to improve load capacity and reduce wear under heavy towing conditions.
Yes, a brushless motor and compatible ESC can be fitted for greater efficiency and torque, but ensure the motor fits the mounting and check pinion/spur gearing for correct ratios.
Use recommended Tamiya paints and allow full curing between coats. Apply a clear lacquer for protection and handle the body by supported points to avoid fingerprints and scratches.
