Default Modified Bruiser

I own three Bruisers in different states of completion. My original, I converted to a 4 link back in 1993 truly as an experiment and without butchering any pieces. This way I could return it to original condition with no difficulty.
Now I'm going to update my work. It was done with aluminum links and 1/8th scale rod ends. All my mounts were hand fabricated and bolted to the chassis. Yokomo YZ10 shock were lying around and in that era the multi shocksetups were popular on real truck. I even figured out how to mou t it all with the stock u-bolts. Enjoy the photos and hopefully I will be updating the work in progress
I purchased the hex hub conversion set and plan on narrowing the rear as well. I will update the radio as the current 4 channel I ha e in it is an AM unit with old Futaba style plugs on servos and speed control.

Picture links don't seem to be working, easiest way to share is to use a host site, photobucket or flickr etc. Upload your photos and it will give you a shareable link
