JRX2 build help

[Dax]

Hey guys so the other day i found my dads old jrx2 he built when he was a kid but never got it running, so i thought id try and buy the parts for it to get it running. I'm sorta new to this so any help would be appreciated! I ran into a problem with the spur gear(i believe is what its called). the guy at the hobby shop said i am missing an extension to it. Not sure what to look up online to find it so anyone know what it is?

Don't know what extension he's talking about...
In this diagram from the manual, the area you are talking about is on the far right - but that's for the stock setup. That pinion shaft looks longer than stock though...maybe for a hydra drive? Do you have any other parts to go with this?

Well, there ya go.

as you are starting with a bare shaft and need to buy a bunch of parts to get a slipper set up you may be better off converting to the modern double disc setup.

Ebay xxx-sct slipper for a couple sellers who split up new kits selling the entire slipper setup in one lot.

you will likely only need to add or make a small 3/16" spacer to fit over the shaft to keep the inner slipper plate from hitting the motor plate.

So something like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Losi-1-10-XXX-SCT-Brushless-2WD-SPUR-PINION-GEARS-SLIPPER-CLUTCH-PAD-COVER-/400765412288?hash=item5d4f7ae3c0:g:GloAAOSwEgVWRGM1 would fit on the slipper shaft i have if i add a spacer? that simple? or is there anything else i would have to buy to convert to a modern setup?

Another option is an A&L Powerclutch, which is still available http://vintageteamaandl.com/powerclutch.htm
This is designed to drop in and allows use of modern standard spur gears.
