VP does not include hardware to mount any of their knuckles.

So are you supposed to just use stock hardware or do you need to order a hardware kit too?

I just installed a bunch of Vanquish stuff on my Wraith wich arrived today and the only screws I got w/ my knuckles was for the steering arms but I also ordered a set of wheels and they came with enough extra screws to put the knuckles on the c hubs. If youre using the stock plastic c hubs then you can use your stock screws to put your knuckles on. The only problem I can see with that set up is youre just going to break the plastic c hubs! I would bet they will break faster with the VP knuckles than with the stock plastic knuckles because the aluminum will not flex like the plastic. My advice would be to get the c hubs from VP as well and pony up and buy some decent hardware to put it all together ,a few $$ spent now will save you some headaches later.

Thats a good point...This is my first crawler and I'm trying to build up my "Garage" with all the tools and parts I might need in the future. Does Axial(or anyone else) make a hardware kit that has various size screws for the wraith or should I just go through my manual and order extras of everything? Also just got my VP tierod and link and probably going to get chubs and knuckles soon so want to get all the correct hardware before I get them...

I just order a bunch of m3 x 26 mm button heads and cut them to the length I need. Works like a charm Keeps me from having to organize and track various different sizes

Avec ce poids, si ton moteur est stock, ca va fumer rapidement.......
With all this weight, if your motor is stock, it s going to smoke soon.....
