Axial 1/10 SCX10 III Jeep Cherokee XJ

From 1984 to 2001, the Jeep Cherokee XJ rewrote the off-road rulebook. It was the first compact SUV to run a unibody design and still deliver real trail muscle. No oversized bulk. No unnecessary weight. Just tight dimensions, a short wheelbase, and torque that meant business. By 2001, the XJ had already carved its place into trail folklore. Lightweight construction made it nimble where others felt heavy. The short wheelbase let it pivot through rocky terrain like it knew the lines by heart.

The Axial 1/10 SCX10 III Jeep Cherokee XJ 4X4 RTR brings that 2001 attitude back with scale accuracy and true crawler DNA. This is not a generic SUV shell dropped onto a chassis. This is Axial and Jeep coming together to honour a platform that helped shape modern rock crawling.

Axial secured official licensing and executed a true Jeep Cherokee XJ with exact proportions, real body lines, and zero compromise. Offered in factory-correct Forest Green Pearl and Stone White, the second-generation body is paired with BFGoodrich Krawler T/A KX tyres on KMC KM444 MESA wheels, the same hardware trusted on full-size rock rigs. Up front, a WARN EVO10-S non-functional scale winch, a DirtBound bumper, and a machined aluminium Factor 55 Hawse Fairlead complete the recovery-ready look with authentic presence.

Under the body, the steel C-channel chassis pairs with AR45 straight axles, 6 mm stainless steel suspension links, all-metal pivot balls, and tunable oil-filled shocks with aluminium threaded bodies. The LCXU DIG transmission with DIG locks the rear wheels for sharper turns through tight terrain, operated via the Spektrum SLT3 transmitter's third channel. The S683 servo with steel output gear, Axial Slick Rock 35-turn 540-size motor, and Spektrum Firma 40A waterproof brushed ESC deliver dependable trail performance. Bright LED lights round out the build for realistic night crawling.

The Axial Jeep Cherokee XJ is a rock crawling legend, scaled down with the same no-nonsense attitude that made the original a benchmark. Whether you are an experienced enthusiast, a garage tinkerer who lives to tune and upgrade, or a Jeep loyalist who has never picked up an RC before, the Axial SCX10 III Jeep Cherokee XJ is built for you.
