Hilux front and rear axles with lockin lockout hubs
Bruiser body

TLT would be cool, if you are going with the Bruiser axles, I would ditch the front hilux hubs and convert to Bruiser, looks like the rear is a bruiser set up already.

No, the hilux hub under hard use will not last. The stamped metal part that has the oval like shape will start to round out. Someone a while back on RCMT has pics of this, I wish I had them still.

I would get some Bruiser knuckles as the arm is better then the hilux one and get some bruiser halfts and rear hubs and youll be good to go
