That's a JRX2 with the pro rear tower, pro bellcranks, and the H-arm suspension which was offered as a later option but came with the pro. Your front wheels are on backwards. You also have a white RC10 battery box.

A totally stock JRX2 with the original 5 link suspension is probably most desirable. Yours is a hybrid of sorts but Losi changed so many things from the JRX2 to the Pro-SE that it's very common to see them mixed up. I've got several.

Thanks.
Kinda thought it was a hybrid since its got jrx2 wheels and not pro wheels.
These are pics from the ebay listing. Im waiting for it to arrive.
What other differences were there?

The Pro also came with a longer chassis and longer front shocks.

Thanks. Just wish it came with a body.

The Pro also had longer rear shocks, different front tower for the longer fronts. A rear tower spacer to flip the rear shocks behind the tower. The kickup is different on the longer chassis, the Pro buggy version had a cutout for a large servo saver. Longer rear camber links for the H arms. Front bumper, or at least a different one, can't remember. Think it had the "pro diff", a bearing in the center of the diff gear. Different battery holder with a more durable hinge.

Might be obvious, the bumper and white rod ends are not original, nor the pink springs. The pinks look like later Losi thou. The Pro came with those rear X pattern tires I think, but if I remember they were available before the Pro.

+1 on Teambluegroove.........I ordered a body and a gear cover for my XX and am very happy with the quality of both.

Here is a question.
Im not decided wheather to keep this one or to clean it up and sell it on. (I enjoy doing this as, if im lucky,it makes this a self sustaining hobby)
If i sell it on is it worth it to pop $35 on a new body set? Or am i better off just putting it us as a roller?
As in would having a new bodyset add $35 to what you would pay for a car?
Thanks. Trying to decide what way to go on this one.

fredswain 05-22-2015 05:22 PM

Best case scenario, you'll get back the money you spend on a body. I don't think it would be worth it.

Guys do any of you remember a hybrid JRX2 / Rc10 car. If I remember right it had a JRX2 rear with RC10 front. Don’t remember the name, but figured I’d ask around here.

I remember that. Think it was called something like the RCX2.

I believe that is correct. I have one I thought I had lost years ago but recently found. I plan to clean it up for display. Really neat car from that time period.
