Diff gears
I run mine dry, but usually I over grease my diff and it slings out onto the gears. And my car spins super free.

I'm thinking using one of these. What do you guys think? Which one would be better.

get dry lube it sticks to the plastic better... a great alternative is Ultralon...but is discontinued at Tower... next best thing is
White Lightning bike lube...

I have Ultralon and I don't like it. Once I put on, I have to keep spinning till it dry or the gears will seize up. And it is hard to remove. That's why I want to try somethingelse.

Paragon makes liquid graphite or at least they use to. I used that on my Pro4 gears. Dries in like a minute or two and stays on a long time. My local shop was getting it for me all last year.

the standard grease that came with the car will work fine....
or soak your gears in WD-40

I might try soak in Mobile 1 fully synthetic transmission fluid. But it stinks.
