I went through my stash of 5 link parts and picked the best ones while staying with the Jrxt 4 hole parts.

Image

Note the the black, .050” shorter lateral links for some toe-in.
Image

Black and grey/silver rear lower shock mounts.. anyone know which one is early or late production?

I don't know which was earlier but I have some useless trivia for you. The allen key for the JRXT lower shock mounts is smaller than the one used for the Mini JRX ones.

Useless trivia aside, this is looking good!
Consistency is the key I keep misplacing.

Turnbuckles and shocks installed. Changed the chassis to a servo cutout one because I have other plans for the Proformance chassis. Both front and rear body mounts are new and not trimmed..that’s why they look like skyscrapers..

Front end with Tecnacraft/RPM turnbuckles and white monster truck steering arms with JG lockout bracket.

Non-cutout early motor plate and 4 hole rear bulkhead.

I’m not a big fan of the JRXT 3pc wheels.. Instead, I’m using a new set of orange Junior T 1pc wheels.

They don't say Losi, but Schumacher makes a stagger rib that is nearly identical. They also have a mini spike rear.

Oh I know but it just doesn't hit as well without the "TEAM LOSI" on the sidewall :lol:

Oddly enough I have several sets of Losi tires, all on 10T's. The only Losi car I have is a Mini JRX2.
