The truck looks awesome...I have plans for an original one that I just acquired that are very similar. Did you powder coat the axles? Or just paint them? What did you use on the tranny because I've never seen one so shiny.... |

I don't recommend powder coating bruiser axles. So painting will be the best idea. I would recommend a self etching primer, before painting the axles. I've used Mothers mag and wheel polish for the tranny, axles and frame.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Last edited by rocpede; 11-01-2016 at 02:06 AM. | |

Mothers aluminum polish and a small dremel with polishing pad, size of a nickel. I'm going to spray paint the axles if I decide to do them up! The pot metal is to soft to powder coat then bake unfortunately :( Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk | |

When I was building Bruisers years ago I would use the self etch primer then use Exhaust Header paint. Warm area - spray - use a heat gun on low to bake it - let it cool - repeat for desired coats. Still gonna scratch but seemed to help it from just flaking off. Miss my Bruisers, keep telling myself 'one of these days' | ||
