DRIVETRAIN
The
Carbon Assault comes with the AX2 2-Speed Transmission, a battle-tested
design that consists of a CNC alloy case and hardened steel gears with a
first and second gear shift setting to set to your preference. The
machined delrin spur gear and slipper pad help prevent damage to the
gears which will keep your truck running longer.
The
RC4WD Plastic D44 Wide Front and Rear Axles feature a center rear diff
housing for a more realistic look. The front axle has 8 degree knuckles,
adjustable caster, removable diff covers, hardened steel gears and XVD
axles. RC4WD also offers a differential gear set for the D44 axles.
The
axles come with upgraded CNC axle trusses and aluminum axle tubes. By
using aluminum instead of plastic, we can ensure these components stand
up to the rigorous demands of a racing monster truck.
The
driveshafts for the Carbon Assault are designed with heavy duty metal
uni-joints with tough plastic shafts for great driveline angles and
power delivery.






SUSPENSION
The
officially licensed King Off-Road Racing Shocks are the most realistic
scale shocks on the market. They feature CNC billet aluminum, faux
piggyback reservoirs and can be oil-filled. The finish is polished
aluminum with blue anodized details and laser etched King Off-Road
Racing Shocks logos. Optional spring sets are available from RC4WD for
even more tuning.
The
front and rear sway bars come standard on this chassis. They are milled
from billet aluminum and can be mounted in two different locations for
maximum tuning.
The
upper and lower suspension arms are mounted to a CNC center skid plate.
The links are made from Billet aluminum featuring our robust M4 size
rod ends. The lower suspension arms have recessed rod ends for added
durability.
The
chassis features inward and outward mounting options for the shocks and
the sway bars. This is made possible by eight CNC shock mounts, each
with 3 different mounting positions. The sway bars are mounted by small
aluminum stays keeping them firmly attached.

DETAILS
The
chassis also has plenty of great design elements including the
realistic monster truck profile appearance, laser etched logos on all
the CNC parts and engraved RC4WD on the lower carbon fiber chassis.
The
RC4WD Manticore Lexan Body Set has distinct styling with a molded in
front bumper, and grille details. The crisp body lines and high wheel
arches perfectly mimic full size Monster truck body styles. Separate
front and rear light buckets for LEDs are also included in the box.
The
sticker sheet for this truck has an all new mascot. Carbon Assault
isn’t just a name, it’s a mindset that is reflected in the included
graphics. It means innovation, speed and down right performance. Use the
graphics included for the pre-painted body or create your own paint
scheme to take on the competition.
