Hey,
I've just got an Outcast EXB and given it a couple of runs. I've heard that new EXB diffs are often not filled up properly, so I wanted to open up and check them all before I run it any more. I had a hunt around on the forums for suggested diff oil weights and saw a few recommendations for F50k / C200k / R20k (rear diff open) and plan to buy some before I open the truck up. Problem is 200k diff oil is basically impossible to find at any of the major hobby store outlets in the UK right now, it's out of stock everywhere (and doesn't seem to be a common weight across all the major manufacturers). Are there other oil weight setups I could consider or should I just hang on until it comes back in stock somewhere? 100k and 300k are both available. I've never fully got my head around the workings of diffs - what would be the impact of changing the weights in the center diff?
Thanks,
