The VS4-10 Portal Axle Builders Kit is built for performance and durability, featuring the highest-spec VFD Twin transmission and F10 Portal Axles available in a kit. Designed for demanding terrain, this kit brings drivetrain innovations, exceptional ground clearance, and a low center of gravity to maximize control and capability.
At the heart of the VS4-10 Portal Axle Builders kit is the VFD Twin transmission, an advanced system with Selectable Overdrive Shifting (6.5% to 46%) and a 3-position dig unit—all in a compact, efficient package. Machined internal gears, metal bearing plates, and a durable machined aluminum motorplate ensure lasting performance.
Power is transferred through ISD10 driveshafts, featuring machined CV-style joints for smooth and efficient operation. The F10 Portal Axles optimize clearance with a compact design while integrating machined hypoid gears, chromoly spools, and brass axle tube inserts for added strength and weight distribution.
The VFD Twin Transmission builds upon the proven VFD platform, integrating advanced drivetrain control with a focus on performance, durability, and scale realism. This system features Selectable Overdrive Shifting and a 3-position dig unit, providing real-time tuning for any terrain.
With on-the-fly overdrive shifting, drivers can toggle between 6.5% (standard) and 46% (high overdrive), dramatically changing the driving dynamics. The overdrive neutral position also allows for 2WD mode, disengaging the front output when needed. The integrated 3-position dig locks the rear axle for tight turns or full control on steep inclines, borrowing from Vanquish Products' proven Hurtz dig design for reliable, smooth operation.
Internally, the VFD Twin is built for durability with hardened chromoly shafts, machined internal gears, and bearing plates reinforcing critical load points. A slipper eliminator ensures maximum power transfer, while the molded transmission housing maintains a scale appearance. The extended skid plate provides added protection for the motor in rough terrain.
The F10 Portal Axles are designed with a focus on durability, clearance, and smooth performance, leveraging Vanquish Products’ extensive experience in high-performance axle design. These axles feature a high-clearance portal configuration, reducing the size of the differential housing while maximizing ground clearance around the C-hubs and knuckles. This design improves obstacle clearance, minimizes hang-ups, and keeps your rig performing in technical terrain.
The rigid one-piece molded housings incorporate an integrated truss that strengthens the axle structure by tying both ends together. The high-pinion hypoid gear setup improves gear engagement, reduces driveline stress, and provides smoother power delivery.
For increased traction and stability, both front and rear axles include weighted brass tube inserts, while the front axle also features heavy alloy knuckle weights. This strategic weight placement lowers the center of gravity, improving climbing performance and reducing the risk of rollovers. The 49° of steering angle provides exceptional maneuverability, giving you tighter turning capability in challenging conditions.
Additional scale details include a removable third member, one-piece molded bearing retainers, and adjustable lower shock mounting positions for fine-tuning suspension geometry. The 6mm output shafts with M5 wheel nuts ensure durability and compatibility with a wide range of wheel setups.
The VS4-10 chassis is built for a balance of scale realism and high-performance durability, utilizing a heavy-duty steel C-channel frame that provides exceptional rigidity and strength. Designed to handle the demands of extreme terrain, this chassis maintains scale proportions while maximizing functionality for optimal handling and weight distribution.
Molded front and rear cross members reinforce high-stress areas, increasing structural integrity where it matters most. These cross members also incorporate dual servo mounting locations, integrated winch line routing, and a scale fuel cell, adding both versatility and realism to the design.
The rock sliders feature a modular, replaceable outer section, allowing easy adjustments to accommodate different body widths while also serving as a protective barrier against obstacles. This ensures a precise fit for a wide range of body styles without sacrificing durability.
The aluminum panhard mount provides reliable steering geometry, keeping suspension movement controlled and predictable. Molded shock towers hold the 80mm Incision S8E shocks in a double shear configuration, ensuring maximum support and durability under extreme driving conditions.
Equipped with Incision 80mm S8E shocks, the VS4-10 delivers smooth suspension articulation with hard-anodized aluminum shock bodies, dual X-ring seals, and keyed spring cups. The 3-link front suspension with panhard keeps the servo hidden for scale realism without sacrificing suspension travel.
The F10 Portal Axles are widely praised for their exceptional durability, precise engineering, machined gears and smooth performance, making them a top choice among enthusiasts.
The VFD Twin Transmission offers on-the-fly selectable overdrive (6.5% or 46%) and a 3-position dig. It's built for durability with machined internal gears and chromoly shafts for smooth, reliable power transfer and a machined motor plate, bearing plates, and posts for maximum strength and stability under load.
The heavy alloy knuckle weights lower the center of gravity for improved stability and traction on technical terrain.
The versatile battery tray accommodates most batteries, including hard case LiPo and standard stick pack sizes, ensuring a perfect fit for your needs. The VFD Twin servo mount locations are integrated into the chassis.
The Vanquish Products VS4-10 Chassis combines scale looks with high performance. Its steel C-channel design offers scale detail and strength, featuring dual servo mounts, winch line routing, and a fuel cell. The molded rock sliders have a replaceable tapered outer portion. The machined aluminum panhard mount withstands severe trail impacts. Molded shock towers secure the 80mm Incision S8E Shocks. Pro rod ends are also included.
A proven combination of 3-link with panhard front suspension and triangulated rear suspension will allow your custom project to perform as good as it looks. The high clearance chassis and 80mm S8E shocks will give you the flexibility and predictability to conquer the terrain.
