Default What/Where/How to adjust rc18t diffs for 6800 mamba?

I ordered a Mamba 6800 and a Quark 33, while waiting for them I have outfitted my truck with steel turbuckles, wabash rims, dirt hawg tire, rpm bumper, factory team front shocks, dogbones and motor mount to make it brushless ready[8D]. I have read that people adjust their diffs to make the truck engage better with a certain load/motor. How should I adjust my stock diifs in my rc18t for all around preformance. Oh yeah-I dont want them so they melt together

Take off the top case (not necessary but helps) Then take off the gold outdrives and stick a 1.5mm hex drive into the long end of the diff. Then put a flat head srewdriver through the other side so it doesn't when you turn it. Tighten it as much as possible (not so much that it strips out the plastic) then loosen it 1/8th-1/4th of a turn. Thats how I run mine.
