ring and pinion grease.
I'm going thru my ofna truggy for the first time and its my first try at going thru differentials. There is grease on the ring and pinion and I need to know what is the best kind of grease to put back on them? Also, is there oil inside these diffs as well? What would be a good all around weight of oil to use in the diff for just bashing and driving practice? Thanks.

Mobil 1 grease(red) on ring and pinion.
What truggy is it? I would go to the ofna website and grab a setup. or to be safe something like 7k-15k-3k or something similar. |
I use regular axle grease, the sinthetic kind on all my rigs, it's been working well for the last couple of years...
|
I use Lucas high performance grease.

Mobil 1 is all you need. :nod:

Wheel Bearing Grease
Any brand is fine...I like it in the round cardboard tub, with the plastic cap...
|
LM 47
I use Liqui Moly LM 47. Comes in a tube of 100gramms and lasts forever.

Mobil 1 grease was what I used for years . Then a rep for Schaffers oil stopped into the shop. I tried their products, on oilfield equipment, dozers,drilling rig ,trucks etc, Schaffers Extreme Pressure grease is the best grease hands down that I have used. This grease will not come off on your ring and pinion. This is sold at our local Napa buy the tube, check it out Ive have had friends switch to this grease just after one use.:)

Grease on CVD's is imo not right unless you have specific boots to keep said grease clean and or using a dry file lube of some sort.....Dirty grease isn't helping the wear factor when you have grit and grime mixed in with the grease....its basically like sandpaper to the CVD.:nod:

Dupont Teflon dry-film or SuperLube PTFE/Teflon dry film for exposed joints:
http://www2.dupont.com/Consumer_Lubr...s/dryfilm.html http://www.jamestowndistributors.com...?pid=4008&BASE Pretty much any automotive chassis grease will do for the ring gears. I use Mobil1 just because it's what I keep on hand for automotive use anyway; but again, any will do. |
The Eureka Lube is made for RC car ring and pinions. The choice of Adam Drake, Mark Pavidis,Chad Bradley,Ryan Maifield,Ryan Lutz etc.
