Mountaineer build up, powder coated chassis, project!

[yota trail finder]

Thanks to my good buddy Richard, Rocpede! I received a super sweet and first for me professional powder coated bruiser chassis! Black!

Threw my old mounty body on, polished up my old trans, rummy bruiser axles, still a work in progress to tinker with!

Rc4wd Cchand steel black front bumper !

540 adapter w/ pullmaster motor

Can't wait to tinker some more!

Comments welcome! Enjoy!

That tranny is sooooooo shiny! Love it! I'm building my OG bruiser right now "thumbsup"

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...."thumbsup"

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..

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

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' :ror:
