MRCC Hi-Line Transmission Swap Skid for Redcat Ascent Fusion Chassis

One of the best ways to improve a performance crawler is to simplify and remove weight.

The Redcat Ascent Fusion is a fantastic truck out of the box, but there is still room to clean up the drivetrain and take weight off the chassis where it matters.

The MRCC Hi-Line Transmission Swap Skid was designed to replace the forward motor mount layout with a simpler, lighter transmission setup built around proven options.

This is not a complicated conversion.
It is a cleaner foundation for the chassis.

Why Hi-Line?

• Designed specifically for the Redcat Ascent Fusion chassis
• Simplifies the drivetrain
• Reduces weight off the chassis
• Improves serviceability
• Makes room for a 4-link setup when paired with a stubby outrunner motor
• Works with stock driveshafts
• Requires no spacers or additional modifications
• Available for proven transmission options and blank custom applications

Available Transmission Options

The Hi-Line Transmission Swap Skid is available for:

• DLux Portal
• Reefs XPT3
• Blank for custom applications

Why These Transmission Options?

This skid was designed around compact, effective transmission choices that help simplify the chassis and improve overall performance.

The OD3 is not offered for this application because there is not enough room to use it without the driveshafts interfering with the upper links.

The goal here was not to force in every option.
The goal was to offer the options that work cleanly.

Performance Benefits

Removing the forward motor mount and moving to a simpler, lightweight transmission setup improves more than one thing at a time.

Benefits include:

• less weight on the chassis
• simpler drivetrain layout
• easier maintenance
• improved reliability
• more room to refine the suspension setup

With the DLux Portal transmission, this setup removes approximately 90 grams (3.1 oz) from the chassis while lowering center of gravity height.

And in a performance crawler, lowering weight matters more than simply moving it forward.

Built for a Cleaner Layout

The Hi-Line Transmission Swap Skid was designed for builders who want a straightforward, effective upgrade without turning the truck into a one-off mess.

No spacers.
No extra modifications.
No unnecessary complication.

Just a cleaner way to simplify the chassis and improve performance.

Designed to Fit. Built to Last.

The MRCC Hi-Line Transmission Swap Skid for Redcat Ascent Fusion Chassis gives builders a cleaner, lighter, more serviceable drivetrain layout built around transmission options that actually fit and work the way they should.
