VS4-10 Ultra Portal Drivetrain
The VS4-10 Ultra drivetrain utilizes the VFD Spec transmission and the proven Vanquish portal axle design you already know and trust. The licensed Currie Enterprises Portal F9 style front axle features an offset front differential housing and uses chromoly VVD axle shafts, chromoly portal box gears, 6mm output shafts, high-pinion hypoid ring gear, chromoly 6 bolt spool and patent pending one-piece bearing retainers to create an incredibly scale and durable front axle assembly. Integrated inner c-hubs create an unmatched scale look and are strengthened to provide the most durable axle housing possible, with easily replaceable chromoly threaded inserts for the knuckle kingpin screws. The rear Currie Portal F9 style axle features a centered differential housing and equal length chromoly axle shafts, with the same gears and spool found in the front axle.

The modular design of the bearing plates allow for optional gear ratios to be used inside the T-case.

The dash attaches to the interior and molded plastic details like steering wheel and gear shifter help bring the interior to life. The detailed front grill assembly is injection molded and features 10mm LED ready headlight buckets, with a scale radiator assembly, fans, and fan shrouds. In addition, the front light buckets can be replaced with optional Vanquish Rigid Industries Q-Series light pods for even more light!

Vanquish Products VS4-10 Ultra Rock Crawler Kit w/Origin Half Cab Body (Black)
Love the kit its simple to build, though they could've included a tool for the wheel nuts. The staff at AMainHobbies is knowledgeable and passionate about what they sell. The website carries a multitude of things that's on everyone's must have list and the prices are decent. The shipping was quick and free!

Vanquish Products VS4-10 Ultra Rock Crawler Kit w/Origin Half Cab Body (Black)
Just the portal axles alone is already worth it! Wish the screws are entirely metric. You will need a 1/16 inch hex driver (as illustrated in the manual) on top of 1.5mm, 2mm and 2.5mm. Thin-walled nut driver is also recommended.

Before assembling the kit, you should make sure the CV Axle fit the bearings supplied. My example has the shorter front CV Axle made too big on the outboard side (the side that face towards the wheel). The longer front CV Axle is perfectly fine.

Vanquish Products VS4-10 Ultra Rock Crawler Kit w/Origin Half Cab Body (Black)
Not completed yet, but quality of all parts are top shelf/ kit is well organized. No problems encountered. Most cars I build always require additional weight, but this rig is VERY heavy "out of the box" (hopefully in the right places). Tires were a little interesting to get dialed in on the wheels w/ supplied bead lock rings, but I got it. Workmanship of shocks is great too, but I wish they were longer as I like to get more flex range/ travel out of my crawlers were I run them. Lexan wheel tubs are a little disappointing considering the price of the kit, but they're light...which may be the point. Going Castle 3800KV Slate brushless, Castle Mamba X ESC, Savox servo and Spectrum receiver...........3S Traxxas 4000mah batteries
PS
Pay close attention to how gears in transfer case go. The 2 larger gears are very close, but not the same tooth count...I was able to put them in backwards which caused binding: naturally after I had lubed the crap out of them.

All together now w/ 90mm shocks for a little more range. Had to shim trans assembly @ front spur/ pinon cover mounting into frame as twisting and minor gear noise were occuring w/o modification (3mm washers). What a car....my buddy and I took them out and ran them thru pretty much the most difficult stuff we run w/ the other cars. Weight "out of the box" is great, not top heavy (even w/ all body detail, panels, etc), climb and decent characteristics appear to be equal and they ride very realistically thru all terrain
