JRX2 Aluminum Shock Towers?

Post by sgirouard »

I just purchased a JRX2 from someone. I'm curious because it appears that the front and rear shock towers are actually aluminum and not home made. Does anyone know if A&L or Hot Trick produced aluminum shock towers? When I have it in hand, I'll post pics.

definitely not A&L or hot trick, neither made aluminum towers for Losi.

Just got the buggy tonight, haven't had time to really strip it down, but here are a couple shots of the towers. They look finished.

I don't know about your towers, except that they are sized/shaped like towers for the Jrx-Pro, but I like the ingenuity of that steering bellcrank. Looks like something I would have done BITD. :mrgreen:

Yes, their sizing and design is almost identical to the JRX-Pro's
