What grease/oil do you use for your car?
For me I use :bow: Mobil 1 Synthetic Universal Grease :bow: , it is vertually undestructable. It is used in many race cars, and since it is synthetic, it handles heat a lot better, and wont break down.
But I am having a bit of a problem, i dont know what to put in my bearings. Grease or Oil. either way whatever I put it attracts DIRT!!!!!! how do i keep this from happening? I grease up my Diff.'s really well, but my bearing are the only thing holding me back!:coffee
 
I got this from Maurice, another racer. This works very well, but a little pricy. 50/50 mixture of Mobil 1 0w-30w and a bottle of Z-max.:)
 
The link to RCpic is in my signiture... If your lazy, here is a few....

Thanks, btw, inorder to use lube, just put ur bearings in a bottle and let it sit over night. You can see the carbons comming out from it.. :)
 
How tall are those rear body post mounts? And do they screw in through the bottom of the cross support?
 
They are not too tall, about half of a inch. If I need them higher to mount a touring car body, I have other post to mount it with... The post is hold by screws on bottem of the bridge.. Here, I i attached a rear pic...
