The 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.

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.

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 hi, on the other end there is a hex. I didn't realize while filming 🙃

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

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
