I was wondering how often I need to fill up the diffs and my shocks. The diffs are stock with the 4 spider mod and the shocks are the hot bodies aluminum.

Thanks guys. :cheers:
 
I have a stock T-Maxx except for a few things but I usually change my shock oil at least once a month, given the oil is black as hell but it doesn't hurt. If the diffs aren't sealed you will want to change the oil in those more often, I'd say about every two weeks. I recently changed mine and the front diff was bone dry and a race blew apart and trashed it. The rear was fine and still lubed. I used 60,000 weight in my diffs and they don't seem to be leaking. Just don't put too much in.
