What lube/oil/grease do you use for your rig?
 

Hey guys just after some info on what you guys use on your rig?

Mines an axial scx10

I use team losi 30,00wt diff oil inside my diff gears..

I use Highspeed car grease outside my diff gears.. I pack the whole diff with it..Been running for 3months now seems good..

For my bearings,screws,cvs,dogbones,driveshafts etc etc..I use protecta lube

I also spray a drop on my motor on both sides..

So what do you guys use?

I use Rocksmith Gear Jelly on any of my metal gears and Tamiya white lube on my rigs with plastic gears. For shocks I use Associated Synthetic shock oil and for diffs I use OFNA Diff lube.

I use Losi shock oil in my shocks, Associated clear and black lubes for the diffs. I also have used CRC engine assembly lube (I had a large tube ) I think it is the same stuff as Associated Black lube. Then I pack it all with water-resistance Marine grease :shock:. So I guess that cancels it all out.

I use vanquish star lube in the berg cases and Losi shock oil in the....well shocks :mrgreen:

Pedro's Syn-Lube and Tri-Flo.

Both hold up very well and are easy to find.

I use Mobile 1 synthetic gear lube (bearing grease) for trans/diff/tcase gears.

Shocks get whatever oil I have. I think I've got some Losi, Axial, Associated, Ofna, Mugen.

Some of the "shock" oils I use are actually light weighted diff oil...to get some heavy weighted shock oil. :)

Rocksmith Gear Jelly goes on all my ring and pinions, and in my transmissions. Great stuff. "thumbsup"

i use lucas ball bearing grease in my diffs, and trannies.

10-20wt oil in my shocks with losi gold springs

I used to use gear jelly but now just use red silicone grease. Haven't seen much/any difference? :???: For shock oil what ever brand that's cheapest & available. Again can't tell a difference? :???: Just don't use automotive petroleum based products. They can mess the plastic up! :sad: Oh and tri flo is one of my favorite things! Great in cvds/300s!

One other thing I use is White Lighting. It is a type of dry lube for bicycle chains, I use it on CVDs and pinion and spur gears.

Losi shock oils and "Lucas Red and Tacky 2" for gears.

Is it safe to use white lithium grease? That is what the guys at my LHS recommend.

I used castrol marine lithium grease on my scx10 packed the whole diff full and dipped all my bearings now it's smooth and I can do heaps of water crossings:-)

Castrol LM lithium. About $5.00 / liter so you can use it with abandon, fill gearboxes and diffs till it squeezes out. It's almost too good for my rig! :ror:

Shock oil is the cheapest I can find, as long as it's weighted. It's only gonna leak out, get spilled on the rocks or thrown out when I change the weight. Why waste money on a branded product?

Cheers.

My R2D has been going through gear sets every 20th battery or so.

It's set up with a 3S lipo, Sidewinder, & a HH 35T Torquemaster

I've been using some blue Mobil grease (not sure of the name), but I think it is too thin.

Her's hoping that Gearjelly will solve this issue!

RockSmith's Site

Gorilla Snawt grease and what ever shock oil i have in me tool box that's the right weight.

i use grim racer speed grease on my bully and rs10 works great for steel and plastic gears, NEVER had a problem with it been using it for years dosent sling off and is nice and tacky:ror:
