Recommendations for diff rebuilding - 01.23.2010, 04:48 PM

I'm looking for any help on what diff lubes I should use to rebuild my diffs in my hyper 7, I am going to be running a Tekin RX8 with the 2050 motor. So can someone help me out here? Thanks

5-10-2 seem pretty popular weights. Some run 3k in the rear instead of 2. If you are on high traction surfaces alot you may wonat to go up past 10k in the center. I run on the road alot and find 30k does the job.

Thanks for the info. I was thinking along the lines of 5-10-2 or 3 so that just confirms it.
