Introducing...
Vaterra Ascender Rear Upper Link Risers (AKA RULR)
Based on the success of the SCX10 version, these parts will allow you to raise up the chassis side rear upper link mounting points to give you better anti-squat characteristics (see below for a tech answer on why this is good...) and help reduce the torque twist in the rig.

Nylon Ascender RULR
These parts are made from durable Nylon 645, and will come dyed black. On request I can leave them natural white so you can dye them any color you want.

Disclaimer - "There is still some controversy about the whole squat or anti-squat thing, so the below information is based on what I was able to find. In the end, these improve the performance of the Ascender because of the better vertical link mount separation at the chassis. Many users are reporting 2 degrees steeper climbs as well as a noticeable decrease in torque twist."
Here's some more info on why this is a good thing for your rig:
With the raised COG and often vertical climbs these rigs encounter, the stock squat set-up actually makes it easier for the front suspension to unload and allow the vehicle to flip over backward. By simply changing the mounting point, this turns the geometry to an anti-squat set-up and when under power, the rotation of the axle actually raises the back end of the vehicle, providing a forward bias, helping you get up and over that steep climb.

- Super Light - Weighs only 3 grams for the pair!
- Improves performance on uphill climbs - typically 2 degrees better.
- Reduce Torque Twist
- Works with stock Ascender Chassis and skid, no modifications necessary!
- Increases pinion angle using stock links (Adjusting the rear upper link with the kit's included spacers will allow you to easily customize the pinion angle.)
- Strong and durable - Nylon will stand up to much more abuse than typical ABS parts!
- Keys into chassis to prevent rotation
- Extremely easy to install, requiring no drilling and minimal effort.
