Description

Two ideas in one vehicle

A pick-up has an open load bed behind the cab, while a tow truck recovers vehicles that cannot move on their own. Set 9395 brings the two together into a single working vehicle. Recovery trucks suit Technic well, since lifting and pulling are exactly the kinds of movement the system handles nicely. The instructions explain which functions are included and how they are operated. Once built, it practically asks to be hooked up to another Technic car and put to work.

Palette and compatibility

Black and light bluish grey lead the colour data, followed by red and blue. Those accents make the truck bolder than many grey commercial vehicles in the range. Red and blue panels are versatile in your own designs too, whether for another recovery vehicle or something entirely different. Because the greys are the bluish shades used from the mid-2000s onwards, parts from 9395 blend seamlessly with any newer Technic set, with no awkward colour mismatches when you combine them.

The build itself

There are 131 distinct part types across the 954 pieces, a fairly compact selection for a set of this size. Many parts repeat, which makes the instructions easy to follow. As a 2012 model it is fully in the studless era, with liftarms, pins, axles and gears forming the structure. That makes it a good step up for builders moving from smaller Technic sets, while experienced fans will enjoy it as a solid, no-nonsense working vehicle.

Parts list and next steps

The full inventory on this page shows every element by colour and quantity. Use it to check a used copy or to sort your collection. The What can I build? tool compares these parts with other sets and suggests which ones you could build fully or partly. Plenty of Technic vehicles from around the same time share similar parts, so you may be surprised by how many matches appear, and the coloured panels are useful for your own ideas as well.
