I don’t remember where I learned the tie rod trick.. probably from an old RCCA tech tip 😂 but it works great and you can remove it with your fingers.. no need to remove the shock or get a wrench. The problem with the stock Losi nylon nut is that it has a flange..which takes up more room. A normal st...

I always use a tie rod end on the front of Losi gear covers because the nylon nut is just too big and a pain to take on & off without removing the shock. But on that specific RPM cover, because space is even more limited, a Dubro #2160 works perfect.

Not that I need any more Jrx2 wheels..but I got 2 more sets.. finally a matching set of Pro-line #2547 & #2548 chrome wheels.. and getting closer to a complete set of glue on wheels.

Holy guacamole….can’t believe I actually won! I haven’t won anything since that 13” color tv in 1997! Thanks dudes..

Anyone recognize this driver figure? Looks Tamiya but can’t find anything with that visor/helmet configuration..then the roof panel is odd..

I use regular naphtha/zippo lighter fluid.. let it soak in, then scrape off with a plastic razor blade or your fingernail..

I’ve been going through some custom R/C graphics I did in the past…

Shoot, just now noticed this thread and last month went completely over my head. These types of polls I have many hopeless projects to enter :lol: When I look at BattleTrak's JRX2, it makes me wonder how many he's trying to build from that pile of parts 😂 😂. Despite how it looks, there is only one ...

I sold Dinglem a Red Prince with this body that used the side bracket Velcro mounting. No idea what the body is…maybe someone can identify it.

Here is my on-road Jrx2 project that I have been gathering parts forever.. RPM, JG and Bolink kits.. a whole box of tires.. I have no idea where it’s going.. then there’s a box of bodies.

The Frog was the first “hobby grade” R/C car I encountered back in the day…. I had a few Radio Shack cars and a Turbo Hopper.. but the kid up the street had a Frog.. it was fast and awesome!

I got the rate limited error this morning too.. I kinda figured it was another attack from China you had to deal with.. everything ok now. Ultimately, what is the purpose of these attacks and bots and whatever…?

Sorry to hear Thumbs.. pets are like family.. I know how it feels. Buster looked like an awesome friend!
