Use AE clear diff grease for inside the diff, and use some sort of high pressure grease for the thrust bearing. I just use the AE black grease. Don't mess about with a winning formula, and the AE stuff is pretty inexpensive anyway.

I just ordered the centering set today along with the servo mounts and black ball stud washers. All of that will go nicely with my avid hexes, shock stand offs and bell cranks from my current car.

I approve of this idea. I hate the idea of drilling my chassis, but i like this idea the best for centerline mounting. after the first set up holes, I would put a foam up front then make another set, the 2 foams and another set. just for tuning.

i think more top pros would do that, but i think roar has some rule about screwing stuff down in the battery tray.



my lame 'center mount' i tried the shorty weight but just didnt like how it made my b4.2 drive, atleast in mod. going to clean up the sc10.2 wiring better when my 94775 comes in.

OK so thinking!!!! the orginal silicone grease for teh b4.2 diff only last 15-20 runs, i mean fast runs going for wins now. But 15-20 runs is kinda ridiculous that is nearly now the mount of runs you want to get out of a diff for replacing it for a FRESH ONE FOR AROUND 25$!!! Right? So here is what i had in mind, I am setting out to find the ULTIMATE REPLACEMENT, yes i am going to do all the hard work for you!!! I am going to try black grease in the diff, losi great grease, Team asscoiated silicone, bfast silicone, mobil 1 syntheic, and whatever else i can find that might work!!!!! For updates I will be posting on here if i will find a different way like youtube. IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS OR SUGGESTIONS OR ANYTHING ABOUT WHAT I SHOULD TRY PLEASE QUOTE ME AN ANSWER!!!
