FMS FCX24 converting the shocks to Oil Shocks
Рет қаралды 4,710
Жыл бұрынThe FMS FCX24 comes with spring loaded shocks. However, in the package you will find some O-rings which you can use to convert them to oil filled shocks. This is a demonstration of how to convert them.
RC is more than my hobby, its a lifestyle!
Therefor I'll post a lot of RC stuff video's on my channel and I'll do my best to give you hours of entertainment and knowledge.
Only with your support I can keep posting new stuff, thank you for that!

Great informative vid! Quick tip to prevent the hydro locking when screwing on the cap: Fill with oil, screw cap on almost all the way, fully compress the shock and screw on the rest of the way compressed. This will let the excess oil bleed out and be completely filled. Cheersman, thumbs up!

Use a 1.5mm allen key in the end of the shaft rather than gripping the shaft. Thanks for the video.

Your totally right. When making the video, I thought about it. As I did it with the side cutters already, I just stick with it.

Nice video. BTW, what size are the o-rings and where can i get them?

Hi, as they came with the truck, I'd didn't measure them. I suggest to sent a mail to FMS, they are very helpful and can probably provide you with the O-rings and dimensions

Might want to get some shock pliers. And I’m curious to see how well that fluid keeps in the 15w shock oil.

Hi, I have removed the oil. They were to stiff in my opinion. Now it runs on the two O-rings with some grease. That works great.

Shock pliers, your right. This one also have a hex on top which can be used when the top cap is removed

@@abudhabikid I use my YeahRacing regular size shock pliers on these micro shocks. They have a slot small enough for them.

I put 30 dollar double barrel shocks. They do not use oil. The factory ones with oil are better.
