Tonka RC conversion | Tonka dump truck remote control conversion with 4WD and 4 wheel steering

Here is my take on converting a Tonka dump truck to remote control. This is a four wheel drive and four wheel steer conversion, with a focus on functionality rather than aesthetics.

My son was really keen on a RC dump truck so we embarked on a remote control conversion for this Tonka truck.

This is a summary and description of the conversion process rather than a full step by step 'how to' guide. I hope you find it useful and inspiring if your considering a RC conversion of your own.
