Is this a 4x4 or 2wd? If it's a 2wd, lock washer mod may be the best as the diff leaks. I think hot racing has one.
2WD correct?
Did you upgrade to a sealed diff? I believe the stock diff is not sealed.
If you have a sealed diff then anywhere between 2K to 5K is your "tuning window" with the following behavior within that range, only look at the rear option in the chart below where I would start with 3K.
If 4WD then I would start with 7K Front, 7K Center and 3K rear with the following ranges:
Front between 5K - 20K
Center between 5K -100K
Rear between 2K to 5K
*** If you go outside this recommended tuning window then chances are you need to make other changes to your setup instead where tires are the very first thing to tune before anything else
FWIW, you'll never get a 1/10 platform to handle like a 1/6, just not gonna happen with completely different geometry, weight, etc
That's like asking for a Ford to handle like a Ferrari... take the bait?

It's the 4x4. The hobby shop in town said put 30 in and it did nothing to the rear...
But Ford beat Ferrari! I saw the movie!2WD correct?

I believe that rustler 4x4 doesn't have center diff. It has slipper clutch that has to be properly adjusted
yeah
But Ford beat Ferrari! I saw the movie!
Sadly, Ken Miles would die in his Ford due to a mechanical failure which questions the handling capability if their design
Ford beat Ferrari because they were able to design a faster motor on the straights, but Ferrari had better handling in the corners, neither car handles "the same" which was the direction I was headed with my thought.
