Here’s a jrxt that I’ve been putting together for a while. It’s got some nifty bits, some RPM arms and wide 5-link set, RPM nose brace, some powdercoated coolness, polished shocks, and “rare” parts. I hope you like it.

I am unfamiliar with all the variations of the mid-early Losi lineup. Is this a 5 link JrT or a JRXT with a Pro-SE chassis mod? Looks sweet. Nice work. Digging the motorplate treatment and dabbles of that boxart Losi red throughout. Solid!

Any plans for stuffin' some 'lectronics in that bad mambajamba

I used a Junior T chassis solely because I had the cool RPM front chassis brace. I may find some red Tekin electronics for it eventually.

That really turned out great! Just enough red. Some really nice aftermarket parts. How did you get the RPM bulkhead red? I have about 5 of those and they are all black. I wouldn't think dye would work on black.

Technically, I think I would call this a Junior T with 5 link, but what do I know! The paint looks very well done.

It's a white Losi bulkhead dyed red i think, really lovely truck with cool shades

What Blast said is correct, at one time it was a white bulkhead that someone dyed (sacrilege) but it was actually the piece that started the red theme for the build!

I agree it’s more of a Junior T mutant, but with the Jrxt body, wheels, shock towers, and steering, it could go either way. It’s like if the Jrxt and Junior T had a love child!

^ Gotcha. I thought you had said it was a RPM bulkhead, and I don't believe they ever came in white.

That is awesome! Thanks for sharing it. You mentioned a wide 5 link set. Was that a RPM option or a T (truck) Losi variation?

They are RPM parts. The rear links and side mounts are wider.
