Hi, just got my new Schumacher Swift almost ready to run. I was wondering what weight oils i should run in the diffs.

Also, can you get a front torsen diff for the swift.

Thanks,
Alex

dont know about torsion diffs but diff oil front-rear 5-7-1

I have heard that the swift gearboxes are the same as the enigma ones. Is this true. If so where can i get a torsion diff for the enigma?

Thanks again,
Alex

No need for torsen diff in any of the cars. Torsen is just overrated!!!

Depends on the person and the track that you run on. Some people buy the expensive dif and love it on a certain track and on others they run regulars. If you feel like spending that much on a differencial go for it but you could save for another motor, new servos, new radio, new pipe or many other things.

The standard setup for gear difs in a 1/8 scale buggy is 5k front, 7k middle and 1k rear.

Thanks for the help.

Oil weight you choose is completely up to you. I personally use 50k - 100k - 30k. It's almost like having a solid shaft but not quite. I am leaning towards putting a solid shaft in the center in place of the diff just because I am not into different brake settings for the front and rear, I want the most power out of the engine to hit the wheels.
