i'm installing as we speak the strc upper and it's a nice finish. i decided to go with the vanquish for the lower since it's harder and i assume they will slide better on the rocks

using their lowers, I HATE the rod end set-up you have to run, but they work ok. I've broken a few rodends with them on.

Well my question is why would you go to hot racing for upgrades when we have Vanquish, Chaotic Crawlers, STRC, RC4WD, etc. for upgrades when it's known that their products appear to be hit and miss?

Well, it's a lesson learned. I tried to do some research before I bought it but it seems like no one had it yet, so I guess I was the guinea pig. Also forgot to mention that I broke off the aluminum end on the steering link which leaves me with a pile of useless HR metal. Buy vanquish first. |

Yeah we all learn the hard way that certain companies are better than others. I can't say VP is the best...I have issues with their 3/16 Steering kits! I am buying the R2j steering kit because the VP one smacks my diff covers no matter what I do!! :(

Mine doesn't, I'm going to assume it's user error on your part.

Okay so I got my VP C-Hubs and Steering Knuckles/Arms! Funny how Vanquish Products design their stuff only to work with their own the best! Now my VP steering tie-rod and drag link work fine! No more diff smacking! The tie-rod is higher now than with the stock setup. Totally weird but I am happy now. Too bad I just bought the R2J steering kits and won't even use them. :( Live and learn, yet again!! :P |

I will probably see how they fit but I am happy with how the VP stuff all works now. Spare parts I guess!! |
