Thanks,
JB

I am running the B5R with a 17.5

I have permatex white lithium grease, plus the normal RC greases.

Use Krytox from Dupont.

Lithium, slime, clear diff lube all dry up & bake from the heat , clogs up between the teeth .

Oil works better then above , but the Krytox stays clear and with stands the heat with no problems..

I dont know if it's just my electronic setup but my stock B5R is 1535. That isn't a painted body, but then again I have about 20g of extra wires I haven't removed.

Adding in Pucks and top shaft later this next month and I'll weigh it again. My friends B5M with all the light weight stuff comes in at 1565.
