I can not push after corners. On break the rear end is lose, I have to work with break more, like ABS. And now I have less turning.
My first setuo was:
Diff: 5 7 3
Oil shock: 30wt front 15wt rear. Springs: front purple rear blue
After V2 + new gear diff installed I did this changes:
Diff : 10 12 6
The same Shock oil and spring.

What you could recomend for better rear tracktion and more turn on bigger spead?

Thanks
Try 15 15 10. I contacted serpent and the tech told me to run that with the updated gears , he said some of the factory guys run that. I think it feels great! Th had 1.0 and went to 2.0. Loved 1.0. But 2.0 is waaay waaaay better. It think ur diff weights may be too low basing it on what the serpent tech said.

U won't be disappointment. It made my buggy worlds better and I was happy with 1.0.
