Hello all.. I decided to post up some stuff about my JRX-2 that I have had since new.. I picked this up in about 1989 after a whole summer of mowing lawns.. It sat after I discovered girls and real 1:1 cars until earlier this year... That's when I decided to dust it off and rebuild it.. I found this great board and lurked around for a while reading everything I could before embarking on this rebuild.. I plan to make this a runner for some fun so I did some things to make it last longer and make it nice again.. I am mostly done with the build except for the electronics update but I figure I will start off with what I have and relearn how to drive these things before updating to the newer stuff.. I did add a slipper clutch to the transmission for future use and will upgrade to 2.2 wheels and tires in a bit after I get some other things out of the way.. It is a work in progress..
So here is what I started off with:
Basic JRX-2
Look at the dust..
Torn down for cleaning..
Some stuff for the rebuild..
The JRX-2 as it sits has Proline 2.0 wheels, stock newish tires (my 3rd set), a Twister Mod motor (have the paper here somewhere), Novak T4, B4 slipper assembly, Losi Hydradrive shaft, idler gear, and hardware, plus a set of steering arms and shock mounts from Oldrc.com, and my old Futaba Magnum Jr radio gear. I did the rebuild and will post up more pics a bit later..
