Chill... already ordered.


I'm gonna send them to my anodizer to have them done in black.

Ok, I'll be able to offer to anyone that wants, a set of minor JRX2 restoration "hardware" items.

This package will include:

(5) 4-40 white 6-6 nylon flange nuts (for shock tops & diff cover)
(4) 10-32 white 6-6 nylon flange nuts (for the wheel axles(
(10) 8-32 Phillips head black aluminum 1/2" screws
(4) 8-32 Phillips head black aluminum 3/8" screws

Shipped total for each set will be $15 U.S. (less for multiple sets)



Anyone interested in a set, post here, and I'll contact you when everything is ready to ship. I'm expecting at least a 2-week lead time for everything to get here. If anyone knows of other hardware items for this car that would be helpful in a restoration project, let me know. I'll see what I can find.




wOOt!

I need one set. Thank you!

Nylon nuts are in, and they are identical to the originals. wOOt!

Screws should be here tomorrow or Wednesday, and will be promptly sent to the anodizer, which should take a few days in transit.


Need to get some small zip-locks and we should be pretty close to screw sets for the JRX2.

Screws took longer to get than expected, but they are finally all here. They are identical in shape to the original black Losis, too with the shorter head depth. They get sent to the anodizer on Monday, and we should be good to go.


If anyone that has a fresh JRX2 can give me some basic dimensions and maybe even a photo of the original diff adjustment hole plug, I am pretty sure I can get those, too.

I'll take a set of screws when you get them. I mostly need the longer ones, but I'll take a whole set if that is how you will be packaging them.
Here is a pic of the diff access cover. It seems to be the same inner diameter as the 1/4" white screw cover I purchased at a local home store. it fits barely looser on the shaft of a 1/4" drill bit than the white one. It is 9/16" long. the barrel tapers from 5/16at the opening to 11/32 at the widest point before the tip.
The actual mounting point on the transmission is quite a bit bigger than 1/4". I don't have any transmissions out of the car to get the drill gauge on,(and I don't have a caliper) but it looks like 9/32-5/16"

All screw kits are in and ready to ship. It took a bit longer than I thought it would to get the anodizing back, and it's not to the very high quality level that I had hoped, but they still look really good on the car. I also realize that since I decided to put this together, we've found the Eagle Distribution selection of original parts, and you can get screws from them as long as they last. Pieces are all here and paid for, though, so they'll still get packaged up for anyone looking for the full 8-32 screw kit with new nylon nuts.



The JRX2 screw kits will include:

(5) 4-40 white 6-6 nylon flange nuts (for shock tops & diff cover)
(4) 10-32 white 6-6 nylon flange nuts (for the wheel axles)
(10) 8-32 Phillips head black aluminum 1/2" screws
(4) 8-32 Phillips head black aluminum 3/8" screws

Shipped total for each set will be $15 U.S. (less for multiple sets, e-mail me for the total if you want a few). At this price, it pretty much covers my parts costs, anodizing, shipping materials, shipping costs and a little bit of my time. I figured it as something that we needed, and I needed them myself, so it's out there for anyone who wants them.

Payments can be made to [email protected] through PayPal only, and I will mail them all on Saturday and Wednesdays of every week. Please note in the PayPal info fields that the payment is for the JRX2 screw kits.


I'll post a photo of a complete screw package tonight...
