We use a product called Clean Ride. Its a wax based lubricant for bicycle chains that contains teflon. It claims to be self cleaning and to repel dirt. It has worked very well along with the dust boots.

I'm rebuilding my diffs with the new orings. I was able to remove the gear from the gear side of the diff, but can't remove the gear from plastic side of the diff. Any recommendations? I tried to let them sit for a few days to see if they would fall off, but no luck.

Prop the diff in something that will hold it but let the outdrive slide out and use a punch on the hex part and hit it with a hammer. You will need a new e clip, but it will work. I have done it many times and works great. Then file the hex a tiny bit to make the gear come off easily..

Find a guy with a 210 to give you some extra 14mm hex's. 210 comes with two extra. The drive pin will work with the 14mm hex as well. Or just wait for the part tree to come out. Or the ALU one. If you do the fronts (I would not right now since it is hard to find wheels). you would need a rear drive pin.

I did it on Cush's 410 last week. On the suggestion of a friend of mine who runs a 210 also I added a .2mm shim between the plastic hex and the outer hub bearing. Apparently there can be a slight bind without a shim there. Cutting off and regluing every set of rear buggy tires was no fun, but both cars are now setup for the new hex.
