Is there a universal chassis jig for flexis? I don't want to have to buy a jig for each chassis.

Curious.

This is the best jig for universal use. Wheelbases from 1/32nd scale to 4 1/2" and everything in between......

Universal Jigs such as Ricks are great for scratch building and setting ride height on any chassis. However shims may be required to center some flexi type chassis.

I use a universal jig, similar to Ricks.

The Precision 1000 jig fits several of the more popular chassis (JK11, 21, 24, & 24). But I don't know of any jig, specifically made for all flexi type chassis.
