My SH Z-Car is somehow as quiet or quieter using its stock steel spur with a Robinson pinion than a Kyosho spur on the same pinion.

I agree with others, if your front end is unloading with 500k something is wrong. Perhaps the company that makes the oil measures it differently? I have seen some brands will multiply their # by 10, so 1000wt. they say is 10000wt. If that's the case you would have 50k, which should still be pretty stiff for a buggy. I dunno.

My truggy is running 30k in the center, and likes to wheelie.
