Hey all,

First time poster, here...

I have an ancient (and well-used) JRX Pro SE buggy, and I can't seem to be able to find a run-of-the-mill body that's less than 50 bucks. I'm getting the car fixed up for my 8yo son and the old body was unusable.

Does anyone know of a cheap buggy body that'll fit this car? As far as I'm concerned, it doesn't have to be perfect, just something to keep the dirt out.

Thanks in advance,

Jason

An XX body will fit with a bit of modification. They're readily available, even on Amazon. Oh, and welcome to the forum!

Wow Gary that pro se sure looks good!!

I to still run a pro se I use the xx body. part number LOSA8008. it fits great just take your time and cut it out slowly. I drilled my shock tower and put xx wing mounts on it so I cut the rear half of the body off. now it works even better.

And Rick should know that they fit, he built the car in my picture.

I thought so, I miss it so much I am building another one as we speak.

Wow, thanks fellas!

I posted on "another" forum and didn't get any replies for a week. You seem to know what you're doing...

Off hand, what do you recommend for motors these days? I have absolutely no idear what's on there now (I think it's gold and has some sort of snake on it), but I'd be up for replacing that too if one stands out. Although if it's like anything else, everyone'll have their own personal preference.

Thanks for the info! I'm jacked to get the thing working again!
