I typically run thicker grease in the front than the back. I don't run oil as the stock TT01 gear diffs aren't exactly very good at staying sealed perfect. I actually am not even using the arms that are adjustable, I've got the non adjustable. This was my first racecar so I started out simple and that's the only part I haven't upgraded. Finished real well every week in a VTA class. On asphalt, I would figure you would want a thinner grease than what I used on mine. I say that because of the lack of grip compared to the carpet I'm running on. Definitely try the thicker stuff first unless someone says otherwise. It'll be much easier to clean out if you decide you don't like it.
