RE: diff oil
you run the heavier weight in the back, right?[sm=71_71.gif]

RE: diff oil
you can but your truck will have terrible handling and will spin out very easy.

RE: diff oil
Heavier weight up front, seems counterintuitive?? :D

RE: diff oil
ok, ok, yes, i'm a noob but trying to understand all these big person terms!:)
I recently changed the stock diff lube and put 10k in the back and front (i think the stock diff lube is about 3k??). My understanding was that if the viscosity of the fluid is higher, then the power transfer to the wheels would be more uniform. ie- both wheels turn at closer to the same speed due to the power being transferred more evenly. If this is true, then IMO, running heavier weight lube in the back should make for less one-sided wheel spin and more wheelies ( i run a lot in loose dirt/grass). HOWEVER . . . after changing my lube, i noticed the truck seems a little more squirrelly at higher speeds in the long straights. In your opinion, could that be from the diff lube or something else. I should also mention I just put a set of bowties on as well. Thanks in advance foryour help!!![sm=wink_smile.gif] |
RE: diff oil
try puting heavier diff oil in the front, that will help it handle better, I run 30k front and 10k rear and it works great,

RE: diff oil
thanks, I'll try it and see if it handles better.

RE: diff oil
2D, you put the heavier weight up front on the muggy also?
