Well, just need to wait for my orange pla to arrive so I can try printing out my walking clock.... :lol:

They should work fine and be fairly light on support material to print thanks to those deep cones. I am going to hold off uploading them for now as I want first crack at printing them lol.

If you build up from parts, the bellcrank posts require 2.5mm e clips which are completely unlisted and not supplied in any mini jrx2 parts bag. I used Axial as they were cheapest.

Added rod ends to the spring retainer so you can now convert 5 link shocks to h arms or front use. They use pivot balls from the shock mount parts bag or straight from the 5 links themselves.

Shock Retainer and rod end: https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/game/losi-mini-jrx2-shock-spring-retainer

and I have been able to print out one Jrxt wheel.. it needs more work... 3 piece wheels ALWAYS need more work grrr.... lol

So....I'm late to the party - what did I miss?

clm - I easily see an LXT in my future, thank you :) What body are you working on for the LXT?

As Jeff mentioned, my two printers probably have 1000s of hours on them now, Ender 3 Pro, both with alloy clamp and glass beds, little things here and there as well - I am filament rich, I probably have 30+ rolls, and emptied nearly a dozen on top of that. Once they are leveled out, they print just fine. They are both cranking out parts, cars, modified items, I think I am approaching the limit for saved files on TinkerCad, LOL.

Bodys and lexan parts are not my forte!

I would happily print out mockups for someone who is capable of making bodies and lexan parts... as it is I am working to model all the hard parts I can model for these cars and just had a thought to ask if anyone had A traxxas hawk I could borrow for a couple months to model lol

Boki racing could probably do a limited run off a 3D printed buck if you were to model a body

As far as the Hawk goes- I found a complete first gen cad model on grabcad a while back. I haven’t looked it over real close but it looked pretty solid.

I haven't given up on my future dream of pulling bodies. On hold for a bit, I need to clear out room & reduce the number of projects I have...

Most likely true - since I dove into 3d, my projects have grown exponentially...
