If you have been wanting to properly match the 1:1 suspension on your TF2 to a real Hilux with the perch up front and shackles in rear then check out the A&M Garage on facebook

After installing the kit it messed up the drive-line angle, I had to get some RC4WD Trail Stomper angled leaf mounts to clock the axle forward and give it a better angle.

I got the reverse shackle kit. Love it.
I ordered another set for another TF2 I got in a swap.

Installed both the shackle reverse kit and the high clearance skid plate/ transfer case mount on my Marlin when I had it. Made a huge difference in how well the truck crawled.
 
Would this shackle kit work on a Bruiser?

Maybe a silly question, but why would you want to use it on a Bruiser? Plenty of people have used the stock Bruiser parts to perform a shackle reversal on TF2's, and I've even used the Bruiser parts to do the same on a Sawback. Just seems like there would be no benefit to using this kit on a Bruiser, though the Bruiser parts can be a bit hard to track down sometimes.
