What grease you guys recommend for the tranny and diffs on an emaxx. Tranny has ultramaxx idlers and diffs are stock up front and spool in back. A link would be good to see what you guys use. Laters

I would use diff oil for inside the diff, i use 7000wt front and rear. If you wanted to get some good grease for the tranny you could go to your local car shop and tell them you want some good grease.

I would only use diff oil if the diff was sealed. Like the ue or 1/8buggy diffs. Use grease if not sealed like stock or flm diff cups.


Peace!

For tranny, go for the Tamiya Anti Wear Grease. Check it out www.towerhobbies.com
