Oh that was you on FB! Great build. I didnt ask before but how's the geometry on the ld2 knuckles compared to stock? I had to play with raising and lowering the bellcranks to get the right turnbuckle angles so bumpsteer was reduced. Also, the Jammin' front shock tower has taller holes for the cambe...

I think that one might’ve set a record..

Had to have it

I wish I only paid 3 bucks lol

Oh yeah, missed that. Odd, have never seen that before

Pretty sure thats how they all were, the JRX2 manual shows square diff ball openings as as well

Not sure if it's authentic or not but I dig it either way

Not the front as XXX has bearings in the hubs and uses a hex. The rear might fit but I'm pretty sure the offset is way off.

I had to drill out the Schumacher caster blocks to 1/8 in order for the hinge pins to fit but that's it.

Schumacher Cougar LD2, so I can use my modern hex AE offset front wheels. I'll most likely use my JC Racing wheels for the other, want to keep that one mostly stock.

What hub and knuckles are up front on the JR2 chassis?

If you're still wondering about the early front housing adjustment there were no shims. You just had to loosen the 8 screws that attach the top and bottom chassis plates at the front, move the housing to tighten/loosen the front belt, then tighten the 8 screws back down. Kinda silly but it did the t...
