Default Jammin CRT RTR diff newbie question?????

Hi everyone,

I just ordered a CRT RTR and since im stationed in Kuwait it will be a few days untill I see it. But I was reading in my rc action that the front dif unloads whatever that mean and was wondering what dif oil should I run in the front and center dif. Also how do I put the oil in? Do I have to take the dif apart and get the grease out or can I just put it in through the set screw and how much do I put in. Also is there anything else I should do or buy for this new toy. We actually have a small RC stadium track on base here and they race every sunday. I had a rough choice between this and the hellfire did I make the right choice. Thanks for your help.

Yup, 7k front, 20-30k center, and 3k rear seems to be the most common setup. I don't know what the default shock oil is, but I'm puttong some 35 in mine.

The looser your track the more it will hook up ie: lots of traction the lighter the diff oil. The more compact the track is ( clay for example ) the heavier the diff oil needs to be. Heavier oil 30.000 and up acts like a locker. that's why you see every one put heavy oil in the middle a lighter weight in front and still lighter oil in the rear. Now on to somthing new. I've recently tried a TORSEN diff (front) W/ 5000 wt center - 1000 wt. in rear, Per. Rob @ nitro house . com ............ Well HMMMM lets put it like this ...... OH MY GOD , what a kick *ss up grade. No longer a dirft car on hard packed IT hooks up like you would not believe. It took me a better part of a day to sort out my driving style to fit the trucks needs but when I did I had so much fun passing the better drivers @ my track, on the inside on the outside if they tried to block me on the outside I would just let up a smidge turn in on them and pass cleanly ... By the way the best on line place to shop for me anyway. NITROHOUSE.COM Later Brother.

Don't know much about the technical stuff, but good luck in kuwait. You made a good choice truggy wise. Watch out for those goofy arab fanatics over there, and thanks for serving and protecting our country!!


Good luck
