Outcast outcast Diff/ Outdrive Oil/ Lube

[Nabiscoa]

I am having to replace the Diff Outdrive- what is the suggest weight in the Diff since i will have out, and what lube do you suggest on the gears when reputting back together, anything available at Home Depot, Amazon?

Lucas red and tacky on the outside ring gear and the fluid on the inside depends on F/C/R it’s also kinda a personal preference.
Most run 60F/300C/30R in the outcast I believe.

Stock is F10k/C100k/R10k but those are really light for most people’s tastes. Most go F100k/C500k/R50k or somewhere in those ranges.

The numbers 60/500/30 are referring to 60,000 or 60k Front, 500,000 or 500k center and 30,000 or 30k rear.

These numbers are mostly personal preferences. Some like heavier, some like lighter... ?‍
Just a starting point, go from there. ?
