|  I put Vanquish D44s and a VFD in my 10iii Gladiator.
It was a hell of a project but it's done! Sitting beautifully on SPEC wheels and a set of my 80mm Traxxas "mod" Big Bores.    Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk |

I think we all need to see pics of how you got that VFD in there.

Thanks everyone! I had significant challenges with the stock fenders. I ordered the file from Knights for the tube fenders. Also placed an order with ScalerFab for steel sliders. The body capture are a royal PITA. Last, I forgot to mention how quite this thing is. The stock portals and transmission made for quite the noisy rig. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk |

Any idea if it’s possible to run the vfd with the scx10iii straight axles? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

This truck looks fantastic. It makes me want to lower my JLU. However, every time I drive over a root on the trail, I'm thankful I have not lowered my JLU. |
