Maybe contacting RC4WD would be the best bet. I was looking at pics and don't see why it wouldn't fit. The Panhard seems like it can be adjusted to fit the axle tubes.

Just editing........I wonder what the diameter of the RC4WD tube is? I know guys were saying you can't use VP C-Hubs on it so that makes me think it might be a gamble.

I just put mine in and it all fits, but with almost no room to spare. I had to move the CMS bracket fwd a bit so da box would sit in properly. I have less then a 1mm between bumper and servo horn. Now the panhard bar is not exactly parallel with the axle but not by much. When the CMS/panhard is set up properly it will hit the servo mount boss on the axles. With droop it is very limiting on travel. If you run a regular set up its not an issue because you get amost full stroke.

Splines are difrent on the rc4wd I bet the diameter is the same.

Can you stick calipers on both sets to verify??? If your stockers haven't sold yet.

Ha I hope so, haven't heard nothing from vanquish or rc4wd yet. Maybe it's because they don't know for sure?

It is designed to eliminate bump steer with the proper setup.
