Finally. Someone who did the included shock oil mod. So many reviews of this rc truck I’ve seen with people saying it’s to springy and even addressing the problem with the included orings to make to add oil to the shock. 👋

Thank you so much for the kind words, congrats on the new rig I think you will love it, also just a heads up, if you strip the plastic portal gears fms is warenteeing them for free and replacing them with metal.

Back watching again, just got done putting the O-rings in oil I only had 20 Weight , I think is too heavy but good for now. Yeah much better, when I put the two little O-rings on I put the shaft through the body first then put the O-rings over the shaft and A lot easier plus I use green slime then snapped a little cap back on

I used 20wt as well and i honestly feel like I messed my shocks up. I'd rather deal with the springyness cause it just feels super stiff now. What shock oil did you end up going with on yours?

@SteadfastRC
@SteadfastRC 2 жыл бұрын
Im not sure, I almost tried that today, the o ring gland is made for two but one could work, some oil might leak by though. Let me know if you try it out.
