Losi Junior T

Post by Lavigna »

I recently bought this truck. It was already a kickass Junior T, built from all new parts. For such a nice truck, it had crappy rusty ballstuds, pins, clips, and some hardware. I changed it all out with proper kit.

It came with natural color (white) JRXT wheels. I changed to these red Junior T wheels. I also added RPM ends, and RPM rear pin carrier. I have a RPM tall chassis brace on the way.

The body is OG, and I have OG decals for it as well. I would like to find some early style thin shock collars . I think they would finish off the shocks nicely. I am not sure what motor to throw on yet.

I think it's a great looking truck. I have never owned a Junior series before. The Robinson arms, Litesink motorplate, and MIP shocks are highlights of the truck. It has been upgraded to bearings throughout.

^ Thanks all!

I added this beautiful aluminum head Trinity Monster Horsepower motor, as well as a vintage correct ZIP battery pack. It has that typical early 90's radical look.

I also added this RPM front chassis brace. I think these are cool pieces, and am very happy to have it.

Did you make the CF nerf wings? I've not seen ones like that before, and it looks like a great idea!

Yes. I made them from some scrap CF I had. I figured I would use the side mounts on the chassis. I always like the way the wings look on the buggies, but trucks never get them.

Thanks!
