Losi JRX2 Comes Alive.
Added a brushless system and some oil into the shocks plus some added weight up front. Better but not perfect. Would be a sweet carpet track racer.

    Red silicone gasket maker on the shock threads will help keep the oil in.

    Great video. Simple maintenance, changing motor and ESC and it's alive⚡⚡⚡. Even if it's not perfect on dust yet, it's a buggy and I wanted to see it there😉
  • Getting the shocks to seal took some fiddling on mine. I got the front and rear sets of springs made for the mini b and found the rear gold and silver on the front really helps the front get traction. With a gyro on steering, it can really hook a turn. 30 wt rear, 25 wt front.

    Try 35 wt in the front with rear springs the crome soft or black medium. 45 wt in the rear with the gold hard springs . Drives and jumps like a dream
  • Looks great, you did a good job doing the mods and the suspension should work better, on a side note the thicker shock oil you use the harder time the spring has getting back to ride height, I think this little guy would benefit from a really light weight oil, I would start at 20wt and work my way up. These might benefit from drilling the shock piston holes to allow more oil to flow quicker too. Looks like a lot of fun my dude

    Good job. All these new cars ought to be brushless from the factory now. Ain’t nobody got time for slow cars!!
  • @Philcommand
    Hey, nice upgrades. Can you provide links to the parts you upgraded? Thank you
  • my very first hobby grade rc was the jrx2. instead of going on our grade 8 field trip i convinced my mom to put the money towards a used jrx2 it had a after market fiberglass frame with a pink coating that was a lot thicker and harder than paint almost like powder coating. if any of you know what that material is please let me know.
  • Contemplating going brushless on my mini JRX2 I just bought. Looking at the Hobbywing Quicrun 4500 kv combo. Don’t know it will be fast enough though lol (maybe with 3s) got a black one
  • I can’t wait for the carbonfiber hop ups to start coming out I’m putting a tp 2030 in mines
  • Need to drop in an ecopower mini servo if you are going to add power and weight. The stock servo is not adequate for brushless and a heavier front end. Ecopower mini servos can he had for ~$20
  • @84bigbenz
    Do you have a link to the upgrade parts?
  • @matthvids
    Nice upgrades!!! Does a 2436 would fit in?
  • @TerraRyzin78
    I have put in 700cst but when I push the car down it does not come up again. I don't know what the problem is. Do you have any clue?
  • @txv611
    what model esc and motor is that?
