JRX2 to JRXT?

Post by BloodClod »

While I'm trying to get my hands on a nice JRXT I thought I'd see how feasible it would be to convert one of my JRX2s to JRXT.

I apologize if this has been covered before (I did view through several pages of search results with no avail), but my question is what would it take to get my JRX2 up to truck specs? I don't need it to be a fully authentic JRXT, but the main components should be there.

From what I've read I'm looking at:

- JRXT chassis - longer, with more kickup and in a different shape
- wheels and tires
- front and rear body mounts
- JRXT shell and side-guards

Did I miss anything?

Thanks in advance.

No it did not. But yes you will also need the long front tower and longer shocks.

Be patient there is always 1 around and will pop up when you go and buy all the stuff to convert. IMO

You can probably use a 90-92 tooth spur gear to compensate for the larger tires.
