Default How do Hilux hubs work

Do they have a 1 way bearing or are they fully locked??
i heard 1 way bearing but that would mean only 2wd reverse..
i'm wondering for my scale project whether to go with a hilux or bruiser axle set

no, when locked the hilux/blazer are 4wd in reverse too

they have small rollers that lock when in forwards

twist and lock in the hub and the axle is 100% locked
I know, mine is sitting right here. :-P
