|  The new F350 Hi-Lift ...Lockable diffs! soon to be released!
Here is the latest new "Bruiser" rumor going around, accroding to a rep at tamiya (Joe Anderson) this is a "real" possibility ....  http://tamiyaclub.com/CS/forums/thread/160892.aspx http://s8.invisionfree.com/Scale_4x4...showtopic=4865 Apparently after Joe Built this, tamiya took it into consideration.... http://www.tamiyatrucks.com//index.php?showtopic=3562 Personally I dont think its anything great, its got plastic everything and will probably have tlt axles and itll cost a hell of alot more then a tlt kit...Id buy one just because BUT In seriousness you could seriosly buy a bruiser frame, Juggernaut body, and a tlt kit and do the same thing  Mike Last edited by 1BadJeepBruiser; 04-18-2006 at 08:16 AM. |

MAN THAT BETTER BE REAL!!!! but cool nonetheless...  i agree on the whole plastic thing.. Part of the fun with the bruiser is that is used metal parts!!!

I'd be on that like stink on poop. Those don't look like TLT axles at all. Almost Robbe-esq. |

The text says full time 4WD and a slipper clutch 3 speed tranny. That would mean that the tranny is probably not a Bruiser (1st is 2WD) or a King Hauler (no slipper clutch, and it's 2WD). Rounded off rear axle housing also. Add all that up, and it would mean a brand-new tranny and diff housing from Tamiya. What are the chances of that??? Not good. We all know how heavily everything from Tamiya borrows mechanicals from other Tamiya RCs. A single new Tamiya RC that has a bunch of new mechanical stuff???? If that is the case, then they must have future plans for borrowing the running gear for other future releases. |
