Utilizing an all new Lightweight Spec VFD Transmission and updated F10 competition inspired portal axles the VRD Carbon Kit is a highly competitive, predictable and versatile platform. The heart of the VRD Carbon Kit is a matte finish 3mm thick pair of carbon fiber frame rails mated to the 6 degree flat skid plate. The molded chassis components and skid plate place the lightweight spec VFD transmission as low as possible into the VRD chassis. For the first time the front F10 Portal axle is equipped with a servo on axle and 4-link. Front and rear axles include weighted brass tube inserts in addition to the front alloy knuckle weights to keep the center of gravity as low as possible, translating to a high performance driving experience.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLightweight Spec VFD Transmission\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3mm Matte Carbon Fiber Frame Rails - 6 degree flat skid plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003e37% Overdrive\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eF10 Portal Axles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBrass weight tubes in axles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlloy heavy portal knuckle weights\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFront Axle Overdrive Portal gears\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRear Axle Standard Portal Gears\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLightweight Machined Chromoly VFD Transmission Gears\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMachined Spool, Ring Gear, Pinion gear in axles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eChromoly Universal axle shafts\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHard Anodized Shock Bodies\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStainless Steel Links with HD Bent rear links\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIncision Pro M4 Rod Ends\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStamped Aluminum Rock Sliders\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAdjustable multi point body mounting system\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChassis\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe Vanquish Products VRD Carbon chassis is equipped with all new molded chassis components that provide a tunable platform to adapt to the most demanding terrain.

Internally the VFD is equipped with machined aluminum bearing plates and machined lightweight chromoly gears. Each internal gear has been re-designed to be as lightweight as possible dropping the weight of the overall transmission but maintaining a high level of durability.
