- Going through the whole process of installing the Vanquish products VFD transmission into the Axial CJ7 SCX10iii.
Disclaimer: “ruining” is referred to modifying the platform beyond reason to make it better for the specific user. It’s a joke, or more so a compliment to creating something unique and unexpected. If you feel like it’s click bait then you are looking for click bait, thanks for watching and sorry to disappoint you. It’s who I am and how I speak about my trucks.
Harley’s part certainly ruined the scx10iii platform as it was and made it 1000% better as a result.

That's truly the best part of this hobby, upgrading, modding, personalizing!! If it's not your cup of tea, there is probably a quilt sewing channel on TH-cam just for you😘😂🤣
I did the same one year ago, with their twin vfd twin transmission in my Gladiator. That thing is a beast 😁
Excellent swap! I watched Josh's vid and then caught this one and I am so impressed with the conversion. Great to see a running video if you are able to piece one together! Cheers and Thanks!
If you remind the battery tray that goes from the left to right in front of the rear wheels. You will find two mounting holes for the tray. If you cut those off, your rear suspension will have a longer travel 🙂
Are yall trying to make this a crawler? I love the rig but from day one i have thought it a gorgeous trail truck. I don't get comparing everything with 2 straight axles to competition rigs. I do modify my rides but i also wouldn't try making my 8s Outcast EXB a speed run rig. The comments section just seems full of folks down on this truck for the wrong reasons.
Not so much making it any sort of competition level right now. It’s a sweet trail truck that has performance potential for a bit more than factory gave. I call it performance scale
Great video on the swap. I'll take that stock transmission off your hands lol
He might do a conversion for the VFD Twin. I think it would be awesome to have 2wd/4wd option. Only for the coolness factor. My question is, would installing a VFD in your SCX disqualify you from running it at an Axialfest? I'm currently building a mashigan on a Bronco chassis for Axialfest West this year and I don't want to risk it not passing inspection. This will be my first year attending so excuse my ignorance of the rules.
The requirements for axial fest are always debated but as long as the chassis and or driveline is axial based you are fine. This still retains the chassis and axles so good to go.
Look at the bootlickers you’ve upset calling out a cleverly disguised advertisement channel… love it!
Nice mod.. do you have to get rid of the vfd shroud to make it fit? Or it’s just your option not to add it?
Removed for clearances.
Thanks 👍🏽👍🏽… I’m considering the mod.
@@BSalc you will really like tomorrows video then!
@@BSalc I designed a front servo mount for it so you can still use the VFD shroud, also an extra mount for the left side of the transmission :) there on cults/thingiverse
thanks for the awesome vids. keep up the good work.
SWEEEEEEET 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Notice a gear ratio change between the 2 transmissions?
It’s a noticeably better ratio and now I can adjust the overdrive inside the transmission
@@ateaserc thanks mate! I ended up doing it and loving it!
Will this also work with the vfd twin transmission?
No, the mounts are different for that transmission
Awesome!!!
If you didn't already have a VFD laying around, do you think the gains are worth the $120+ to do the conversion?
I would recommend going on the vanquish buy sell group and find Rob Matheny and buy one from him. He parts out new rigs and it’s much cheaper. But yes. Better trans and more options for over drive in the VFD
TY sir on it :)@@ateaserc
Is this part a file u have to print yourself or the actual part. Thanks
It’s a file to be printed. Link is in the description to Harley Design
was looking forward to your video info but the tech just wasnt there. the music was way to loud then just stopped so the next 25 min we soent in silent fast forward with no words of wisdom. better luck next time i guess? give us another but mind the edit
I’ll work on it. Thanks
I had no problem with it.
Josh didn't ruin it you did by deciding to do it everyone is there own person just because you don't like it doesn't me he ruined it
It’s a bit of an inside joke on ruining things. It’s by far better but no longer stock is all. I personally love the VFD in this platform
Sarcasm isn't for everyone...👍😁👍
Nice... you ruined it good.
That would have to drive a bit more planted.
Cheers 👍
Cool swap! Does that Hazzard County mud ever come off ? 🤓
Never comes off, lol
What lights did you use that are the bucket lights by window?
They were from boom racing. I didn’t put leds in them but they come with them. $9.99 I think
Hey thanks for the info now I have a friend looking for 3d printed mounts for that motor swap you did can you print him some?@@ateaserc
@@brettskinner5824 I can if they buy the file from Harley and send me confirmation of purchase.
Thank you sir I'll let him know and get with you if he choose to go through with it which I bet he will.@@ateaserc
Thank you for sharing a great video with a great car!!! ~~~^_^😮😮😅
Thanks for visiting
I have a early bronco sane exact platform I want to do this to. Can I pay you through PayPal to print me the mounts I need to do this conversion?!
I don’t print for resale but I’m sure someone will after you buy the files.
My guy…Harley Designes ruined my CJ7? “Ruined”? You know that means to make something negative, right? Total clickbait.
You obviously have the skill. The rig is popular already. I give a SUB to almost every cool RC channel or vid that someone does.
“Clickbait” gets you a view on one video. However, it will never get you a SUB.
Furthermore, you used that awful music. I was actually hoping to hear you talk about it. “When is this guy going to say something”?
I’m sorry guy. You just went about this the wrong way. Next time, just put a naked girl in the CJ7 and call it good.
Surely noted. It’s sarcasm not click bait, I guess I can see how it’s taken that way. My voiceover didn’t come through and I’ll get that fixed. Thanks for the feedback
@@ateaserc Fair enough. Can’t tell you how to do your videos. I’ve had awful music in my vids before. All I’ll say is, maybe some intermissions where you share your thoughts. Harley Designs is respected in the RC community. “Ruined”, came as a bit of surprise to me. That man puts his reputation on the line every time he speaks.
You got the skill. Don’t worry about your accent, your language, etc. Speak your mind. That’s what we “clicked” your video for.
@@spinrushrc Different people I guess.. I got exactly what he was going for in his title and don't think it was click bait. I'm pretty confident even Josh would appreciate his title...
It was more an if you know you know title my guy, but I can see how you got trigged. Cheers
Why spend $500 on an inferior chassis platform and have to spend hundreds more and many hours of your time in hopes of making perform better because you like the body? This is counterproductive people.
I don’t think I’ve ever left an RC vehicle stock…. Maybe I should start trying that.
Each to their own, room in this hobby for everybody, don't need negative people.
Part of the fun is making that inferior chassis function better. if everything was a comp crawler out of the box there would be no aftermarket
