Quick JRXT question???

Post by DerbyDan »

Just wondered if the JRXT like the one below is has the LWB chassis? (A la Proformance JRX2 kit & the Pro)

Or is it short wheel base but with different shaped sides?? :?:

If You mean "short" version is jrx2 chassis, then this seems to be the long version from jrxpro or from Proformance kit.

You can compare it to here: http://www.rc10talk.com/download/file.php?id=37552&mode=view

Ah - maybe I wasn't making myself clear... the picture in my post is of a genuine JRXT (I believe)

I am desperate to find a good SWB chassis as I have enough spares now to build myself a complete JRX2 buggy from new parts.... except the chassis :cry:

Thing is, if the JRXT has the same length chassis as the JRX2 (but slightly different shape to the sides) It widens my scope as to what to look for - especially as the truck chassis' seem to escape with less damage due to running at higher ride height :wink:

For me that Pro chassis in the link seems to look longer (space between battery cup & steering arms seems less??..... though maybe not :oops: )

the jrxt chassis is longer and also has a 30 degree front kickup, where the x2's kickup is 20.

Ok!

Jrx2 has a shorter chassis, the shape is different on sides like You said and also the front kickup is only 20-degrees.

JrxPro and JrxT has identical longer chassis and 30-degree front kickup. To their longer chassis You could for example install "flat" 7-cell battery pack between steering servo and rear bulkhead. There are lot of good Jrx2 and JrxPro & JrxT pics on this Losi forums first page.

Cool info guys... thanks :)

Unfortunately I guess, it doesn't help my search for a decent shape chassis for my X2 :?

Looks like I shall continue with my plans on getting one made from Fibrelite 8)
