TC6 - which spur/pinion gears & shock oil?
trying to quickly get together an order for the indoor season, going with a TC6....... but no idea what to buy for spur & pinion gears......a guy in my club replied to me on FB but i'm at work and its blocked & I'm confused by the reply...
oh sorry the weights are going to be dependant on spring rate. I'll lookup a base setup for you here shortly then let you know. I'll also look at gearing and let you know soon. I just have to find my links
....................
for FDR you should look to be anywhere from 4-5 range (final drive ratio) the internal ratio in the TC6 is 2 so I would pick up the following
Spurs: 88 and 96
Pinions: 40 thru 44
That will give you a good range. with the 88 your fdr rage is 4 - 4.4
and the 96 is 4.36 - 4.8
as for oils I looks at the lowest traction asphalt setups available on the team associated site and it looks like 35 wt but I would get a range from 30 thru 40 in all of the half increments (ie 30, 32.5 35, 37.5, 40
I looked up on Amain TC6 spur/pinion gears but did not see any of these numbers...... can someone help translate to a noobie and paste me some amain links on which these are? Or if these aren't correct tell me what I should be getting spur/pinion gear wise?
And what shock oils would be good? Anyone know for sure? If a bottle is 2oz how many of them do you need to fill 4 shocks?
