Nope, on the motor leads. Used a cap from my Hobbywing Justock ESC since I had it handy.

interesting, never seen that one before. Learn something new everyday!

Getting the runner ready for the Kinwald Classic this weekend. Going up against B2s and XXs so I doubt it'll be all that competitive but it will be fun! Hoping my 88/89 vintage Tekin ESC600 Pro XT holds up, was surprised it even worked lol Love it! What's with the Cap on the motor leads though? sho...

Yeah that’s true! Ha.. Typically the .9 shocks use a 2” spring. 1.5” on .6, 2.5-2.75” on 1.2 rears. I’m almost done with my ProSE build..nice buggy buy the JrxPro is my favorite. This is the first Pro I've owned. Pro SE was the first hobby grade i owned but that was long since sold but been wanting...

I think you should be fine with a swivel ball in the inner position. its mostly a position that rotates and doesnt move much fore and aft.

Looking good and not too ugly at all..you’ve seen my jrxt build, right? :lol: The only thing that looks off to me is the 2.5” pink front springs..too long unless you cut off 3 coils like the Jammin steering enhancement kit recommends. Thanks! Yeah concours wasn't my intention with this anyway hahha...

She's a runner now. The electronics layout isn't pretty, mostly becuase I have the battery adapter cable and lipo voltage monitor that i use to run on my older electronics. The Futaba ESC is pretty damn nice. need to do some swapping of tires and such before I run it on a track. I found that JC Raci...

Never seen those before they look sharp though! I need to see if I can get those I just noticed they have JRX2 wheels too!

Few small updates. I ended up purchasing a ebay lot earlier which includes a full LXT, some XX and XXX parts and chassis and what I hope is a JRX2 chassis as well as a load of parts so excited to see that come in this weekend. I ended up getting my carbon towers from Vintage R/C. I bought all 3 JRX ...

Looks sweet! How are you mounting the batteries? I just did a design for mine to mount a single shorty lipo if you need inspiration.

Looks nice! Did you do the chassis yourself or have someone machine it for you?

Friday I finally got my new project in. The previous owner must have really liked Miller. https://i.postimg.cc/DSQMfQDG/efafafafa.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/v132fYGH/efeaefefea.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/5XWrMKP1/ergervaewe.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/1fqd21rJ/rgrwgawffvas.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/kVnh263p...

Starting working on assembling the mini LXT. Going to need to rework the front and rear hubs as there isn't enough meat on them to be durable at the ball stud holes. But its coming out pretty good. I have an idea for the rear axles, hopfully the lhs has some of the parts i need. Also seems that the ...

Damn, I guess I'll go with my other option, and just buy some 2mm nylon standoffs and cut them down.

Looking good man! What did you do about bearings with those rear hubs? isn't the 22-4 metric?

ps: if you end up looking to sell any of that older stuff xx4 let me know, looking to use my xx-4 again and could use some stuff. would be nice to put some threaded shock on it.

Sweet, I was about to order some 2-56 nylon nuts to see if they'd work, I guess this answered my question.
