Vanquish Products VS4-10 Phoenix Portal Rock Crawler Kit

The Vanquish VS4-10 Phoenix Portal Rock Crawler Set is the very first platform to feature the Vanquish Products VFD Twin transmission (patent pending) and F10 Portal Axles. This combination supplies performance benefits never before offered in a scale package of its kind. The VFD Twin integrates Selectable Overdrive Shifting and a 3-position dig system into one compact bundle. The molded F10 Portal Axles utilize a high clearance design which lessens the size of the pumpkin and takes full advantage of clearance around the C-hub and knuckle. Connecting the VFD Twin to the F10 Portal Axles are the ISD10 driveshafts. The ISD10 Driveshafts have actually machined CV style joints at each end with molded splined shafts between them for smooth and effective performance.

The VFD Twin Transmission (Patent Pending) package is a development of the original VFD. Taking the same balance of performance, scale appearance, strength, and adding market very first functions. The VFD Twin comes equipped with selectable overdrive and rear dig. Twin moving transfer case uses replaceable bearing plates, a brass pivot for the shift arms, and chromoly shift slides. Loaning from the proven Hurtz dig, the VFD twin moving is smooth and reputable. On the fly overdrive moving from 6.5% to 33% makes an instant change to the driving attributes and tuning choices. Plus, if you don't wish to purchase additional servos for the dig or overdrive, both systems feature a mechanical lockout system so you aren't required to run these functions unless you wish to!  

The F10 Portal axles benefit from Vanquish Product's years of experience in making the market's finest aluminum axles. The molded F10 Portal axles feature an ultra stiff design with an integrated truss that ties both ends of the axle together, as well as brass inner reinforcement tubes to include more strength and supply some weight down low to the car. 

Vanquish Products VS4-10 Chassis is made to supply you with a balance of scale looks and unhindered performance. The steel C-channel design supplies scale detail, molded front and rear cross members fill the chassis rails in the highest stress locations for ultimate strength and supply functions like double servo mounts, winch line routing, and a fuel cell. The molded rock sliders come with an exchangeable tapered outer portion that completely fits the Phoenix body. The VS4-10 chassis is developed to work with the VFD Twin transmission to keep the overdrive and dig servo low on the platform. The panhard install on the chassis is made from machined aluminum to endure the impacts of serious trail conditions. Formed shock towers record the top of the 80mm Cut S8E Shocks in double shear for maximum assistance. Narrow molded front and rear bumpers maximize clearances while enhancing method and departure angles.

The VS4-10 features Cut 80mm S8E shocks with bigger 8mm bore aluminum threaded bodies, double X-ring seals, locking preload collars, keyed spring cups, polished steel shock shafts, and machined pistons. The front 3-link with panhard suspension supplies scale looks by keeping the servo out of sight, while still supplying space for complete suspension travel. The suspension rotates on a full set of stainless-steel links to keep the weight down low with a smooth shift from the link to the rod ends.
