just wondering what you guys are running in all your diffs for racing. I have my revo completely apart but not sure what to use. i do have a center dff
 
50k front, 500K center, 20k rear

It does not seem right to run heavier in the front but it keeps the inside front wheel from unloading and seems to work well.The truck is actually a little loose/oversteer with this setup.
 
Yep, 50K in front diff, 10-20K in rear. I noticed just a little improvement over the stock 30K in both. I'll be starting with 300K in the center diff this weekend.
 
It probably will, thanks for the heads up. My track is a very slippery mix of clay and sand, so I figured I'd start with 300K. One race on 300K, next race 500k. I'll post results.
 
No problems what so ever! The 300k pulled me through the corners no problems. I was very happy with it. I think I'll leave it be for a while.
I was turning very consistent 34 second laps, for comparison the buggies/truggies where averaging 32-33 second laps.
I only had one Savage and one Aftershock to race against. I blistered them.=devil
 
revo diffs

300k? what is the center diff oil weight from the factory?
 
i had to install the center diff. have about a half gallon thru it. do you think i should change the oil?
 
100K comes standard in the center diffs, the P.E. comes with 500K.
1/2 gallon?, I'd change it.
