100% agreed. Universals ftw

It looks like the YouTubers were just waiting to hit upload on this one...

it's like I'm looking at a production version of the IFS I designed LOL

Thank you SVT923 Very cool option.

To be released this month.

Dammit I JUST sold my Sendero to pay some bills. Guess I’m ordering a builders kit soon.....

Nice, I'll have to pick one up. At least it'll give me some differentiation between Enduros that I have.

There's the outdrives.

This makes me want to grab another Enduro kit to build a scale Camaro.

Up on the Element site now:

https://www.associatedelectrics.com/...IFS/Enduro_RC/

$100 for the conversion, 45* of steering, compatible with existing Enduro knuckles, and it can be thrown on whatever Element, Axial, or SSD chassis someone may have laying around.

Sold.

Now the only question is what IFS appropriate body to run.

I'm very excited to see what kind of trucks people build with these, and if/how Horizon responds.

I don't have an Enduro (or Trail King, or SCX10ii), so I definitely won't be an early adopter for this IFS. But, after the dust settles, I may be very interested in this kit.

Has anyone found a preorder for this yet? I might be forced to order 1 or several

I vote Proline Colorado ZR2.

OK this is awesome! This is a killer for something like Roll Scale. Horrible timing on their part, sadly. I know that's aluminum, but I'm guessing this will be better designed. I just wish it also worked with the VS4-10 chassis, but you can't win them all. It fits the SCX10 II and the SSD which is great. Awesome release!

Wonder how many more threads will see on this announcement?

Pretty cool. Element RC is gaining my respect big time for the innovation and willingness to step outside the box here. Underrated bonus = compatibility w/other brands!

This makes me want to go and buy an element Enduro Builders kit or a Trail Walker.

Badass!!! The Box can be cut into a diorama old school Arcade system for the scale garage!

It's funny, I turned my Slash 4x4 into a 2.2 crawler with JB Welded locked diffs 5-6 years ago. It actually did surprisingly well with the front and rear independent suspension

As much as I don't care for Associated, through their Element RC division, with this IFS kit, they my have just answered the question I've been asking (in my 329mm wheelbase these) for about a month.

Nice!! I was wondering what it would be. Now this post in their ig story makes much more sense. Looks like there are two cabinets, very cool.
