Looks Sexy!!!! Nice Work Jim!

I asked about mix and match in the transmission thread but didnt get a reply. Will they be made in red? I fancy black centre and red side/motor plate.

Vp Monkey · 11-28-2010, 03:32 PM

I am sure we will, but atm, we just need to get enough stock to cover the demand atm.

Vp Monkey · 11-28-2010, 03:35 PM

I just need to determine what electronics I am going to go with.

yfz350 · 11-28-2010, 03:45 PM

what hubs are you going to run with your wheels ? whats the eta on the motor plates ?

i like your take on the the transmission cases

DRIVNMF · 11-28-2010, 04:08 PM

Just add driver and you'll be a weiner!

What's up with the tranny cover? It looks real good.

Glad to see you building a rig and you can never go wrong with Axial and VP as the main ingredient to any build.

sococrawler · 11-28-2010, 04:19 PM

finally, nice to see ya have some sort of a break!
can't wait to see what else ya come up with on this thing!

keep up the good work jim!

Vp Monkey · 11-28-2010, 04:54 PM

The one good thing about me getting my own truck done, it will help us finish a bunch of parts you are all waiting for.

Vp Monkey · 11-28-2010, 04:55 PM

Going to start with 460 n dh pro II and 600 or 725 with the slw. See where that takes me.

I like the mix and match on the cases.

Is your chassis mounted in the correct direction?

lol, not sure, I will prob be tearing it off shortly anyways

oneeye · 11-28-2010, 07:39 PM

It looks like the rig is comen along great. I do think the chassis is backwards but some have liked that setup better. You should have some COOL VP chassis plates to replace the chassis with soon anyways RIGHT?

cascade crawler · 11-28-2010, 07:50 PM

I see your doing your own mix to the cases looking good Jim

as far as electronics go the double tekin's seem to be a pretty popular route, I personaly run a single ecs and a punk ,but I am still a noob to the moa thing so i don't feel like i would do a 4pk any justice(just yet

). but the options are endless... can't wait to see what you come up with here though, we will have to go crawling somtime once its all togehter

I am running the same wheel setup on mine and found that the 460 hub for the DH2's(front) with the 475 hub on the SLW(rear) net you .25 inch narrower in the rear. Great looking build, looking forward to seeing more great products from vanquish especially for the XR10.
