Losi LX-T's and JRX Pro SE

[YZ-10]

Thought I'd post some new additions to my collection...

Losi LX-T 'XX Trans Edition' I think this is going to stay as shelf queen its just too clean to race.


















Another LX-T... bought for spares, I was pleased that it has the XX trans and the hydra drive












Losi JRX Pro SE, bought mainly for the RPM chassis brace/plate and front bulkhead (which I'll use on LX-T racer)

Needs.. A quick strip down and cleanup (diff feels very smooth) new front wheels, swap rear tyres for period Pro-Lines, new body and wing, odd screws etc, fit orig top plate and bulkhead, then not sure whats happening with it, I'll either do up as shelf queen or a friend is after it as his Pro SE has a busted chassis.

I may struggle with the original JRX wing buttons, those are quite hard to find so the aluminum ones will prob have to stay on (I'll de-anodize and polish them) The rear wheels on the car are brand new so I've sourced a new set of fluorescent yellow front wheels to match. Tires well the originals will be impossible to find I'm sure so seeing as it has the Pro-Line Wide Fives up front I'll just fit some Pro-Lines that I have on the rear. Or maybe I'll find some suitable Losi's we'll see













Got lucky finding some LX-T body sets too...

The XX retrofit (car) is the same as the XX buggy trans....2.19. The XX retrofit (truck) is 2.61.

Bit of an overdue reply from me... thanks for the info highwayracer - so was the original LRM gearbox that came with an LXT 2.61 also??

Hi Dan, the LRM on the LX-T is 2.18:1

Ha ha - i've been eyeing up the hydradrive equipped LRM gearbox that you have for sale in the BST section - I presume it is from one of 'those' LXTs that you had brought & wondered if the box would be good to use in a buggy?

2.18:1 across all models I think, yea I bought two from ebay but I found once arrived one had chassis broken in 2 places and the other was a different truck to photos and had a Junior 2/T chassis and non original wheels. Buying a new chassis off Rick now and will be building my race truck up from that.
