Do I or should I put moly grease on the diff drive and pinion gears?
I've just rebuilt the front and rear diffs and red and tacky isn't available in UK.
I've done a fair bit of searching on this one and the prevailing response is to use red and tacky.
So I used white lithium grease. Just a good blob and run the gears around by hand to get and even coverage.
But first run after the car ran hot for first time ever. Motor and ESC are hot. I've run it in hotter weather before with no issues what so ever.
So I thought to clean up the diffs and use molly grease instead. I assumed the original arrma grease was silicone based?
