What ever weight you choose will work out fine. Its all preference. Racers like a lighter weight for turns. Bashers like the heavier weight. I tend to over do things and go through diffs, so i have always been on the heavy side....with my diff oil...that is

Just got me a roller. Are the diffs already filled with oil?

My Typhon was a RTR bought last year in Nov. The diffs are filled! but I really can not say which setup they used.
Thanks. I guess I'll start by replacing it with 50k center and 100k front and rear. Is this a good starting point

I have the Senton, so the same length chassis and I run buggy tires on it. I just swapped to 30k F/R and 50k center. I love it, just enough thickness to stop diffing so badly, but still thin enough to turn easily

It rides cool just really jumpy. Got to be easy on the throttle. It set up right now for top speed runs ima detune it and start track racing it soon. Hkgh speed is fun but you cant go to a field and just bash the hell out of it.

Wouldn't you want heavy oil in the center for speed runs?

Put 50k everywhere and I like it much better that 50k F/R and 100k C.
Was hard to keep straight on a bumpy track, now it's good.
