Recycled pro body onto a JRX-2

Post by aconsola »

I keep finding pro bodies that have had their nose snapped off. Since I similarly have a hard time finding good x-2 bodies, I decided to take the advice in Jay's sig and recycle a pro onto the shorter wheelbase jrx-2
A little trimming and some drilling, and this is what I wound up with. It fits pretty well, and there is clearance for the shocks and the 5-link suspension. The body was pretty beat up to begin with, it had been clearcoated on the outside, and this is peeling off. It will do for a runner.

Jay,

To you and others, not all advice falls on deaf ears. I might have tried to "round off" the front of the body a bit, but looks good. I have a couple bodies that i could "modify" to fit.... but i hesitate since its not totally at the point where its a MUST DO.
