Would not surprise me if there was 2 versions like the 12th scale, a EU/Asphalt version and a US/Black Carpet edition.

Just picked up the Fenix ball diff, what are you guys using for fluid in it?
Anything I should know when I'm assembling/installing/using it?

I use Lucas Oil Red and Tacky. Works very well on black carpet. Have an extra spur gear. Just in case.

Just picked one up, 2017 version, its dialed for carpet but we are running asphalt next week.

How much of a setup change do I have to do?

Any idea where one can find the tube?
I have the rest of the items needed.

It's all about weight transfer, it is way more reactive

Everything bolts up but you need the carbon front shock support from the 15/16 cars.
