Lifted and upgraded FMS Suzuki Jimny 1/6 scale crawler - best mods and upgrades

[@boldrbangr9834]

These changes are exactly what this rig needed! The slightly extended wheel base looks great.

[@IllusionSector]

I am generally a purist when it comes to scale models of iconic vehicles. Thus, for the most part, I am weary of alterations that deviate from the classic recognizable looks. However, even *I* can't deny that this mod looks absolutely sweet and has a ton of class.

pinkze he say " truly your channel is fantastic, real honest FUN reviews and your passion for Rc really shines through. I love the music in all your videos and your style "

[@twisterzman]

Did the PVC trick years ago myself. Randy nailed this. Good color combo too. Spring over axle swap, tires, wheels,.. its what a weekend trail guy would do with his 1:1. Excellent video

[@RCReviewChannel]

The others with a PVC!

[@shannoncold]

Wow! Awesome build, something about the Jimny thats just magical.

[@RCReviewChannel]

I think you captured the word. It’s such a cool mystical vehicle.

[@caseyjonessnr1200]

I love the upgrades. The repaint looks fabulous. An excellent vehicle made even better.

[@glennjthompson332]

Hopefully in the future, if (FMS) make this for high lifted crawling and mods, it looks perfect! (B+)

[@RCReviewChannel]

Exactly

[@HenryCalderonJr]

Love the lifted and paint looks so awesome 👏🏻

[@traviselliott3042]

You just answered on the video. Those wheels are a work of art

[@RCReviewChannel]

So good huh?

[@michaelpaciorek4068]

looks wayyyy better than the original

[@RCReviewChannel]

Right? The transformation even shocked us.

[@JoeOvercoat]

Q: I BOUGHT ONE! But...*how are the caps on the front hub removed?* It looks like the caps are held by friction, including the six struts about the circumference of the cap...but my car's caps aren't popping off with gentle pressure. The six screws appear to be for the hex, so unrelated. Do I just need to push harder? ...or twist it harder?

[@serrated13]

SCX6 is truck of the year.

[@RCReviewChannel]

Truck in a month for sure!

[@xy0oaurorao0yy46]

[@oldironsfury]

[@aiizen_pr]

[@DomVito87]

Beautiful truck. Just got one... In case anyone wants one Amazon is selling them for 150.... No bs.

[@pennychoi612]

May I know how to change front tire

[@leestewart5424]

Very cool looking build

[@plukensteinpaint]

Okay I’m hoping to get a little more info on how you did the wheels. What part of the wheel did you actually cut the face of it? I just don’t wanna mess up my wheels but I really want to do this modification as I really like the wheels. Thanks for all the great inspiration 😊

[@johnnolan8074]

Any advice on unglueing tires from rim to change foam.

[@kevinbreaker2683]

That's good Nice performance Hop up🌟👍

[@francopellegrini9003]

Awesome man congrats!! That mod is exactly what they would do in the old times. Where do you buy your figures? I really like how real they look those action figures? Which brand are they? Thanks

[@NANNIRC]

Super cool!! that is the right look. I want one!!! Ciao!

[@RCReviewChannel]

It looks so natural!

[@joshcoulter3824]

Love the vids. That thing is over the top. How much did it cost all together?

[@RCReviewChannel]

$350 stock in another hundred dollars for upgrades. Tires paint and driver.

[@Pedro123-s6v]

What a change 😮!!!... 👌

[@RCReviewChannel]

Night and day huh?

[@zonegamma8197]

very cool project

[@traviselliott3042]

What wheels are those? It looks great!

[@fredwaldrop3810]

Amazing!😍👍

[@ekpauly]

Awesome build! It would be great for Randy to do some build videos, just saying.

[@RCReviewChannel]

He’s camera shy. He’s building real big trucks usually 1 to 1

[@Nordlicht05]

This thing is cool.

[@josepriba9539]

Very nice mod,I like it more

[@RCReviewChannel]

Definitely better. In real life I would’ve done the MOD to this car.

[@ripnandtearing]

You mean Randy Ellis like Randy Ellis Designs??

[@osho5996]

nowadays rc upgrades are becoming more expensive than 1/1 cars 😅

[@abudafi232]

Nice rc car.. 👍👍👍

[@RCReviewChannel]

Very very nice.

[@kennethwelty1190]

Very cool

[@AlexMontour-c6u]

Those latches on the side of the hood are not functional, however still neat rigs.

[@GeezerGramps]

I have to say I wasn’t that impressed with the stock one for $350 looked more like a $200 vehicle to me. Your friend did wonders with it now it’s cool looking. Doesn’t sound like it cost that much to upgrade it.

[@RCVOODOO]

$200 6th scale? Lol

[@RCReviewChannel]

Bodies like this usually cost $150 by themselves

[@safitz7863]

I have this vehicle. One sixth scale is my primary hobby, RC is extra. I paid 300 for mine. 300 doesn't go far in the sixth scale hobby these days... Especially when static models of Humvees are running you like 1500+, a die-cast Iron Man 400+, boxed modern military figures 200+, nude dolls with no head for kitbashing 60+.. You get the idea, 300 was a steal for this.

[@fishnrc294]

I love the look of the modified one but I can’t justify spending that much on it & then doing all that work & still needs major upgrades but will always be very limited. Seems like the price should be more like $175 or $200. The terrain you can use it is pretty limited. I’m sure it’s fun to a certain point. And the steering is the worst I’ve ever seen! Seems to me you kind of tore into the Marksmen pretty good & this one didn’t say a lot about the steering & where’s the fatal flaw steering test! Maybe there in just a different category. Seems more of a shelf queen then anything. I’d spend my money on a real crawler or trail truck & pretty much would have to be a rich man before ever buying it. I’ll stick to my final flawed Marksmen thank you very much!

[@paulclancy2404]

Whats wrong with the marksman , that's a good truck

[@paulclancy2404]

Whats wrong with the marksman , that's a good truck

[@paulclancy2404]

Whats wrong with the marksman , that's a good truck

[@RCReviewChannel]

I agree with you. Call to see this well engineer vehicle from FMS
