Kraton Diff Oil

[GunitSamba]

Hello all.

Been a member for a while now but this is my first post.

Bit of a noob question but could anybody tell me if this would be ok to run in my v4 kraton.

The only reason I ask is because I don't really want to waste money if its not correct.

Many thanks in advance.

Don't see why not, just go with the cheapest stuff, you'll have to tip it out and clean the diffs every so often anyway.

Great thanks dude.

I already have the 30k which i previously used in my *cough* e-revo 1/16 *cough*.

BTW its just for grass and very light bashing.

Many thanks.
Sorry i forgot to ask how often to change the oil?

Regards.

If it's for light bashing, I'd say every 20 packs but don't go with it like the bible, it's just what I would do, sometimes a quick visual check will tell you what you need to do.

Go by performance and feel. There’s no way to say how often you need to change fluids.

Brilliant. Thanks for all the help guys.

I run 60/1m/30 front to back in mine. a thicker center will definitely wake it up

Dude, what do you mean by "wake it up"?

Also what punch should I run?

Many thanks.

Mine seemed a lot peppier almost like you upped the punch. Are you running a blx setup or an aftermarket setup? I upped my max 6’s to max punch but I like to party ?

I'm running BLX standard, high speed pinion and no fans.

I will be adding fans at some point though.

Regards.
