description
The Bruiser is descended from the Hilux 4x4, modified in the flavour of the Californian mudbog racing pickups and it was a true success! Large changes have been made from Hilux since it only shares with it the front/rear axle assembles, some gearbox parts - everything else is new. The most important change from Hilux and Blazer was a real working leaf spring system: prior system was too hard and suffered from a lot of 'users' modifications. Other changes were a new bigger and more powerful RS-750SH motor, a slipper spur gear to prevent gearbox damage due to increase of power, bigger "All Terrain Utility" tires. Lost was the Hilux's front wheel manual hub-locking system, replaced by one-way bearings in each front hum; Wheels are 3-piece chromed plastic. The Hilux's 4000mAh battery is a useful Bruiser accessory, providing 30-40 mins running time. The Bruiser is today a highly sought-after 3spd truck! Maybe because of its look with a bed cab, maybe it is a nice runner because of its bigger tires, who knows. "Hog Heaven" indeed!
