the biggest downfall for the junior series was the shock towers...... well the front one anyway. lots of flex, but i never managed to break one. the lack of adjustable turnbuckles sucked too. but, even if they were, most serious racers would've upgraded those to titanium anyway. the other issue was the lack of bearings for the axles. the early junior kits came with bearings only in the trans. my original one was like that, but the later version i picked up has bushings. there's other differences too (older vs. newer) that it think anthony pointed out in another thread.

anthony, what logo is on your motor plate? the one i have now has the team losi performance script. but i kinda remember my original having the jrx2 script. could be wrong, though. i'm pretty sure yours in an early version, correct?

This is an early one with bearings in the transmission, and a jrx-2 motor plate. It also has the lighter silver shocks just like the x2/xt.

cool, thanks. i was pretty sure my original had the jrx2 plate.

I have some with both also. thats one of the great things of the Junior series you cant really go wrong

Boxart stickering is going to be challenging.
It looks like they used the grill, naturals, revolution, and U.S.A. from a jrx-t sticker sheet, and the Team losi checkered flag logo from a jrx-pro sheet(which I don't have),
The Tru-pitch gear logo has orange lettering, which I havn't seen on any sticker sheet that I have.
The only stickers on the boxart from the actual junior-T sheet appear to be the junior-T logos and hood pins/gas filler cap.

Don't know if you saw this Anthony?

Hey now I am high bidder on that!!

I am "Bidder 1"

either way we both win. My jrx 2, T decals are suspose to be ready tomorrow and the Ink for the Pro I have is on the way, I just dont have a full sheet just the 3 pro emblems. So I was going to get the hole sheet copyed and shair

sounds good to me, have at it. I've got the feeling it is going to go higher than I want to spend anyway, I've not seen one of those sheets available before.

I am afraid of that my self!!

I decided to just use the stickers that it came with rather than to try to piece together a true boxart set as the paint is not exactly boxart anyway.
I think it came out pretty well. The novus stuff does a great job at shining up the old lexan. I haven;t drilled any holes yet and am unsure if I will mount the wing on the truck bed.

Its close enought it looks great!!!!!!!! You know if you dont want to drill it just sand/cut off the nubs and use velcro?

That looks awesome Anthony! I say leave the wing off, looks like a proper truck that way. Kind of like the old pic's of King Cab's, Hi Lux's, Outlaw Ultima's etc BITD when they were state of the art.

Wow, that's clean looking. Nice work.
