No reason for front overdrive but i have not tried it, technicall with the center dif the front tires expand more than the rear giving you overdrive anyway but only when you need it......down the straight!
Coyote, use my setup exactly so we have somewhere to start from. I have very slight on power push but i will take that over turn entry push anyday and its not enough to alter my driving style. You should not have to try and "rotate" your truck around the track, its very hard to drive fast and consistent not only that but with the Cdif all rotation is numbed but you will get better steering all the way through the turn. i find that if i "flick" the wheel it will rotate but most of the time it just turns wherever i want it and always seems to have more steering if i need it to pass or get off of line. Think about what is happening, you have basically seperated the front from the rear, by nature this will give you a tighter turning radius but on exit acceleration as the power plants to the rear the front will unload and give you push. for you simply using the 3-3 block may fix it all for you since it puts more pressure on the front tires you will get more on power steering.
we need a known foundation in order to help your problem and the best way is for you to copy my setup since we all know it works very well!
Thanks, I'll get some real diff grease ordered, any recommendations on the brand? Also where can I find your setup again? On the RcShox thread? I'll have some fun with the LHS and call them up and ask if they have any "ball grease" today
