I thought I could when I received the first parts but now that it's done, I'm reconsidering it and I really think it's going to stay on my shelves... maybe I'll build another one with used parts to race it, that buggy is my favorite one after the RC10 of course

there will be soon a JRx2talk.com

I have an undriven JRX-T with bushings I bought off ebay, here in Germany, with the fugliest body ever. I first thought of buying for spare parts for my bro's JRX-PRO SE with the retrofit tranny, but I got enough parts the way it is now.

BTW my bro and I still fight out the old RC10 / JRX challange

I am thinking 40 € / $50 plus shipping. Is about what I payed. The junior T BTW is the SAME as the buggy with deep offset wheels.

I hope you're winning, like in those good old days where the RC10 was taking it all

Awesome restoration or new build I'm not sure, but lots of fantastic new parts. I love the Trinity hop-up. Will you post a vid of it running? Could I please request the chance to buy a repro body too?

hi there, of course you can, but be patient... I'll post some pics of the process step by step, but I'm quite busy at other things and it could take a few weeks or months... the 2 Jrx2 are restorations but almost every part is now new or like new with no wear at all... I'm also waiting for a friend to do a repro of a Dham's Van's Invent body for them... stay tuned

Thanks a lot mate I can't wait!

I pm'd or replied to the post about the Dham's Van's Invent body which you mentioned before and I'd prefer to get a copy of that body if possible as I am restoring a JRX2 with lots of hop-ups. You probably didn't get my pm or post reply as they were all wiped out the other day along with my registraion due to the site problems and I have only just re-registered today. Anyway let me know if your friend will have any spare Dahm's. Cheers Ed

i don't know which dahm's body you want, but they still make some for the jrx2.

yep, I know, but I've tried a hundred of times to call Van's Invent from Belgium and they never answered... I was about to buy at least 20 bodies for me and some friends...

and you don't have to be afraid of the Feds when you buy from them

hi i see you have a set see's alum rims on one of your jrx2s . I just got the set of sees in the mail, i purchased from the for sale & trade forum, heres a pic the rears seem to fit, but the front stock jrx2 bearings are to big to fit in, i tried a rc10 front bushings that are flanged un like stock jrx2s ,they fit. Do yours have the flanged bearing in them?,and could you post a pick of the inners of the rears to see if there the same .the package actually says rc10 on it but the rears don't fit a rc10,
thanks for your help. b.

I received my Sees rims with the buggy, the rear are the same as stock and the front also... I use the stock bearing in them...

here are some pics:

maybe you have a front set for the RC10 and a rear set for the JRX2... that would be very sad... here are some comparison pics with one front JRX2 and one RC10 bearing and a flanged bearing inserted in a JRX2 front rim, definitely too small...

hi thanks for the reply
the rear seem to be the same
but the fronts are almost the same as far as i can tell, they seem to be fine with rc10 bushings in them, heres a picture with the rim on the buggy i going to restore, but the idea is there, was hopeing your offset was the same as mine . what do you think?how does your front wheel offset compare, i figure i could run these and maybe the rims all the same just the bearing holes are drilled different.
