And yeah... 40wt. I just stuck to what the manual had as a starting point. I was leaning towards something along the lines of 3000k to try next. Or would you go more? Would that affect keeping the rear planted? I'm an oval guy so 4wd is a bit new to me.
Definitely go WAY up in front diff oil weight, IMO. I was running either a gear diff with 2.5 million(!) in it or a slipper spool with success. I've run as light as 50k in the front on asphalt and it was fine on a low powered VTA car, but for carpet I ran much higher. Hope this helps!
Oh, another question... Has the car always performed like this on carpet since you built it or has this been a gradual change over time?
