| Who's running grease in the outer stub axle cup where the inner axle shaft and drive pin go? Who's running it dry? Not sure if it's better with grease in there like the Tamiya instructions call for if it's better dry or some other lube that won't attract and hold dirt. Any suggestions? |

| I run it dry but I think some lube would be a good thing. I'm gonna pack them like a birfield. |

| My nitros I run dry (nothing stays on them for long due to the rpms and heavy off-road use...but this is kinda a different beast...definitely reminds me of my Yota birfields. ;) I have some stuff called WHite Lightning...for mtn bike chain and sprockets...it goes on liquid from a squeeze bottle and the carrier solvent evaporates and leaves a waxy lube...thought about that maybe. Don't want the solvent to get on the Tamiya plastic...been so long since I had a Tamiya kit that I'm not sure about thier plastic and solvents. Quote:
