You learn quick young apperentice!

That's because you're too young and should be focussed on your studies anyway.

Yeah. You need to study. However, if you want, you can only take a peek at Britney Spears.

He,

there are a lot of other story's about building the diff.. now i polisched the disks and put a very think grease on the thrust-bearing... the balls and diff rings get only a small amount of greace...

Not that's my storry.. what are you story's or, can i find any hint's and tips ? ( i already read julius and glen' articls...)

InitialD

Cyclops, it's actually very simple for me. Firstly, I smear the Mugen Super Grease on a paper towel (a little bit less than 1 cm worth of grease) and rub all the diff balls evenly on the paper towel with these sticky grease. Nothing on the diff plates. Pop the diff balls in and start assembling the diff. Of course the thrust bearing inside the diff is lube with the Mugen Super Grease also.

Secondly, build the diff and makes sure without the diff collar, the diffs are tightened just enough that the diff pulley does not slip when you turn it hard.

So far after over a year of running, I am still using the same diff balls and diff plates. The diff stays very smooth still and I have only serviced it like 4 or 5 times only.

I believe Serpent is going to release a tool (or I thought already released) to make the job easier to ensure the diff pulley is tight and does not slip.

Thx for the help.. no polisching for you then?

I think i'll try mugen super grease then :-)

The tool i have, we got it at a technical meeting of serpent at our local club...

Don't tell anyone..... but there is also another tip with the diif.....put a thin coating of super grease on the part of the diff which is underneath the diff clamp - this improves the operation of the diff.

Cheers, Mark.

I'm sure I saw pictures of it, but maybe it was an hallucination because of the cold

Here's one coming up for Crashed:

Hehe, i knew that one... doesn't the grease wear out or just spins of? Or is that super grease that super?


ps, nobody read's it here.. you'r secret's safe!

markp27

Cool Super secret grease - that stuff ain't going to move

Well, the grease should still be there in the clamps. The residue is still stuck with the diff balls after playing the car continously every week over a few months.

Like this one?



Funny that one didn't officially come out on mytsn after some time already. It's a clamp type aluminum hexes. Part number 802255...
