JG Handling Pro Alternative: A Free FiveM Handling Editor
If you searched for a JG Handling Pro alternative, you probably wanted one of two things. Either the $33 is more than you want to spend on a tuning tool, or you already have a handling workflow and you only need the part that edits values and spits out a handling.meta.
This page covers both. It compares JG Handling Pro honestly against the free JRaxion Vehicle Handling Editor, says plainly where JG is the better tool, and points you at the right one for your server.

What JG Handling Pro actually gives you
JG Handling Pro costs $33 and it is a genuinely good product. Calling it overpriced would be dishonest. You get:
- A real-time advanced editor with live previews
- A simplified editor with presets and real-world metrics
- Telemetry: speed, timings, graphing and run comparisons
- Visual flags editing for hidden vehicle properties
- Saved handling profiles you can share
- XML export or instant in-game apply
- Integration with JG Mechanic
It runs standalone, though job locking needs QBCore, Qbox or ESX Legacy 1.3+. It also expects OneSync Infinity, server build 7290 or newer, oxmysql and ox_lib. The code is escrowed, so you cannot read or edit it.
What the free JRaxion Handling Editor gives you
The JRaxion Vehicle Handling Editor is free and it does the core job:
- Live slider editing for any handling value, applied in real time
- One-click export of the full handling.meta, ready to paste
- Drag and drop install with no framework and no dependencies
- Config option for the interface language
It does not need oxmysql, ox_lib or a database. You drop the resource in, start it, and tune.

Which one should you use
Buy JG Handling Pro if you tune seriously and want the telemetry, the preset library and the flags editor. Those features are real and nothing free replaces them. If you already run JG Mechanic, the integration alone probably justifies it.
Use the free JRaxion editor if you want to change handling values, see the result immediately and walk away with a handling.meta. That is most people. Most server owners tune a handful of vehicles a few times a year and never touch telemetry.
Try the free one first. It takes two minutes to install and costs nothing, and if you hit its limits you will know exactly which paid features you actually need.
About leaked copies
A lot of the traffic to this page comes from people searching for a leaked or cracked build. A short word on that.
Leaked FiveM scripts get you no updates, no support, and no way to verify what the Lua is doing on your server. Escrow-stripped resources are a common malware vector in this community, and a backdoored handling script sits on the same server as your player database. You also risk your Cfx.re account.
If the price is the problem, use a free tool that is actually free. That is why the JRaxion editor exists.
If you need the source code
Neither the free JRaxion editor nor JG Handling Pro ships readable code. If you need to modify the tool itself, integrate it with a custom framework or audit every line, the JRaxion Handling Editor is also sold as an open source build for $30, with the full editable source and no escrow.
That is the one thing JG does not offer at any price.
FAQ
