Default Is a castle 1406 1Y 4600kv to much?

I have a mmp and 4600kv system in my parts box. Will it work good on my jk. I have the stock system in there now with no issue but want to go brushless. Let me know if it will be ok. I have 2s and 3s batteries I can run. Or should I just add a castle bec to stock system and run 3s? Thanks in advance.

That's good for a 2wd sct. Too fast for a scaler.

I really don't want it to be to fast. I use it to trail and hit some rocks also.

No...i dont think its a good choice...i used my stock esc and a HH 30t motor with a bec and 3s and geared it at 5 to 1 and its perfect for trails and crawling..with enough wheelspeed when i need it.

Also was using the stock motor before my new one came in...ran great!

Way too much speed and being sensorless it will cog instead of crawl.
