      well its been awhile . but wait to see what i have instored for this project.
      i started with a bruiser stock chassis
      i cant use the center cross member, or the front cross member

      rc4wd has dual shock mounts for the tf2, but you can also put them on the bruiser chassis. i only had to drill one hole

      today ive install a 12mm hub convesion kit made by rc4wd part # Z-S0107
      this will let me put any style tire and rim on it. but if you deside to keep the stock axles , rc4wd also make a new style rim for the bruiser only
      Z-W0030
      also if you look closely, you ll notice that all the white plastic parts that come with the bruiser kit is black . tamiya Full Pull 502 Big Block toyota makes a complete black set

    i picked up some rc4wd 90mm shocks (z-d0002) , i beleive the red is discontinued but they do come in silver and black
    ive installed 2x in each corner
    also the hub nuts match (Z-S0756)

    so these next pictures show a lot
    to get the 502 in it. i had to take alittle off the front cross member
    next i had to move the steering bell crank forward. steering works perfect
    i have red rod tips coming in. this will make it look so much better

    here's a more of an overview
    im useing rc4wd steel drive shafts (VVV-S0004, VVV-S0002)

    i prefitted the 502 and made some adjustments and also made some motor mounts
    not sure if any body ever saw one of these engine , but there made by rc4wd ( Z-S0059 )
    the 540 can motor fits right inside it and has a built in transfer case



    next is a radiator, hose, hood scoops and fake electric fans


    added pull some tires and rims, these are from rc4wd ( Z-T0070, Z-W0135 )

    now with the second body , i needed a little different theme . i will have different tires, rims and motor hop-ups
    today i went to my local auto parts store and told the guy that i was wanting to build a super fast toyota. and was wanting twin turbo chargers. so this is what we came up with lol . its not a direct bolt on but i think i can make it work. also with this body i had to buy another radiator, intake manifold and couple other things. also i have a nother grill coming
    heres intake

    today i did alot of changing for this theme of the truck.i removed the interior, added the duallies rims,added inner fenders, added the right pullies,painted the hood and added a hood stand



    cab is painted and pin striped, i received in my new front bumper, need to make mounts for it



    the rc4wd bumper i bought is sweeeeeet! to work on the bruiser i used a peice of delrin , shape it and mounted it. the looks and plays the part really nice. now i need a winch
    ive also painted and mount the bed cap. i was thinking about a camper, but to to do this right i would need to do the bed differently, such as no tail gate and a drop bed . sorry guys next time !
    ive order some interior for a axial wraith that i might be able to mod to fit, if so that would be really kool
