Recommended grease for E-maxx Transmission - 06.02.2006, 03:17 PM

I've got a SuperMaxx Hardened Steel Idler Kit coming and i read on their web site that they recommend using grease in the transmission and not to run it dry, anyone recommend a good grease to use?, I'm only using the stock motors at the mo.

i run a light bearing grease that works very well. No need to use too much though.

Just make sure it's light so it's not too thick and you'll be fine.

Best grease is the black/grey moly grease.

I use a wax based grease in mine.
