When I did my 43.7mph, I was in Mint 400 territory, near Las Vegas (and, since my BR is the Limited Mint 400 Edition, the location was befitting). I haven't tried the second pinion...yet...but, I might. ~ More peace, love, laughter, & kindness would make the world a MUCH better place |
Re: Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck Can I get some thoughts on diff grease? I have been running my BR with no issues at all for a few months now (on 2s) but my Hot Racing front and rear diff parts have just turned up so I am about to tear them down and slip on the larger bearings. Whilst I am in there, what diff oil / grease combo would you recommend. I mainly drive on grass or gravel. Not looking to race, just looking for best balance. |
Re: Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck Finished up the rebuild, still needs suspension and diff tuning. 4s equipped! :twisted: First-time paintwork is nice from far but far from nice. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/vW...w1024-h768-p-k |
Re: Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck Quote:
I'm curious how you end up tuning the diff to keep the front tires from ballooning. Mine ballooned horribly on 3S before locking the center diff. |
Re: Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck Quote:
FWIW, I've got 1M in the center and 15K up front. I still have to get everything tuned as far as suspension and diffs go. I will probably try 300K in the center next. |
Re: Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck Quote:
Thanks! What do you not like about 1M in the center or are you just curious what something less viscous will do? |
Re: Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck Is anyone using Proline KO2 tires on the stock wheels and can you tell me if they fit up inside the body when the suspension compresses? I'm looking for something that doesn't hit the fender lips. |

Do you mean 1/2" taller or 1/2" wider? My stock tires diameter's measure 4.66" (new) and 4.52" (worn) and the T/A KO2s are supposed to be 4.74" tall. That's only 0.08" taller. Stock tire width is 1.75" and the T/A KO2s are 1.80" wide. That's only 0.05" wider. What do you see that indicates that the T/A KO2s are 1/2" larger in any dimension? |
Re: Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck Quote:
If you are putting them on a new set of Losi wneels, the Black Rhinos, you might be in good shape. I didn't try them as I wasn't confident that they were significantly stronger than the 1st gen wheels...which I cracked 3 of pretty quickly. |

Re: Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck I have the Black Rhino wheels and am pretty tempted to try the Proline tires, but I have no idea if they will fit. Proline says that they are perfect for the Losi Baja Rey but they also say that they may require body trimming. https://www.prolineracing.com/tires/...dium-tires.asp |

Re: Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck Quote:
Thanks for the info. Just to clarify, by lower offset wheels, do you mean that the wheels are pushed out further than stock? Or, to put it another way, your wheels have less backspacing than the stock wheels? Is that what you're saying? |

Re: Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck Awesome. Sounds like they should work fine on the stock wheels, then. Thank you! |
Re: Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck Does anyone know how the offset of Proline 2745-03 wheels compare to the factory Baja Rey wheels? Do they push the wheels out more or suck them in more? https://www.prolineracing.com/wheels...loc-wheels.asp |
Re: Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck Without having the exact dimensions handy, the Protrac wheels you listed would suck the wheels IN compared to stock, Slash rear/4x4 pushes them out a couple mm's. The protrac wheels have positive offset meant to pull the wheels back to their stock location when running protrac arms (which are something like 10mm wider than stock) on a Traxxas slash, I'd imagine they'd probably be quite a bit too narrow for the BR. I'm still all about the Yeti SCORE SLW wheels with either a .225 or .185 hub. |
