LOSI MOLDED CHASSIS QUESTION

I've decided to 'complete' my Losi collection,with one (at least) of every car and truck,right up to,but not including (yet?!) the XXX series.

A PERFECT LXT is coming my way,couertesy of the legendary Bearrickster :wink: and my JRX Pro SE arrived today.
I'm curious about these molded chassis...The Junior 2 and T,LXT and Pro SE all use the same chassis,or are the LXT,Pro SE and Junior T a longer version of the others?
The Pro SE seems to have a pretty long wheelbase...Seems they would have used the same chassis for the Junior T and LXT?

If anyone has a Junior 2 buggy they'd like to sell,or I could twist their arm and convince them to sell me and some nice yellow Pro SE logo rims,let me know! :D

LXT and Pro SE used the same chassis, they had 2 sets of holes for the rear end for the wheelbase differance. This chassis was a little more narrow than the junior t/2 chassis. no holes for the 5 link mounting

Junior2/T I think (not 100%sure) they shared the same chassis. A little wider than the LXT/Pro SE chassis and had mounting holes for the 5 link rear end. I can't remember but the 2/t chassis might have also had the extra holes for the longer wheelbase.

the junior2/t share the same chassis which does not have the extra holes for the long wheelbase option, but does have the mount points for the 5-link side bulkheads

the pro-se and lxt share the long chassis, which is narrow without side bulkhead mount points

there are 2 versions of the junior chassis plate:

Thanks for clearing that up,guys. :wink:
This SE is the first pre-XX molded chassis Losi I've owned. I dig the wee cap on the antenna post!
Sounds like I definitely have an SE chassis. :D

no mint chassis' in that pack...all runners...if you look at the pro se in the bottom pic, you can see the 5 link mounting holes on the sides of the chassis, even it is running a junior chassis, i dont have hardly any se/lxt chassis sets at all!!

I will shoot you a PM after I get better pics.
