  • Let’s service the Traxxas Sledge front/rear differentials, and give it a boost of speed. The stock fluid for this machine is 50K front/rear. We will be using 40K for the Front, and 30K for the rear. This should help it corner better on the track, while also giving it quicker rotation for BACKFLIPS! I was going to use 30K for the front, and 20K for the rear but decided to start with a small change to see how it reacts. We will deffinantly update everyone in our next video.
    Parts used:
    -Marine Grease by Dynamite
    -Traxxas #9581 (Carrier, differential/ differential bushing (metal)/ o-rings (2)/ ring gear gasket)
    -TLR 30K
    -TLR 40K

    Man. Great video. I’m about to service my diffs for the first time and you really did a good job explaining and showing everything. I can already tell that pin inside the spider gears is really gonna be a pain in the ass though 😂😂

      When you first got the Sledge did you check the fluids before running it?

    Does changing the diff fluid create more heat in the motor?

    • @redbanditracing
      @redbanditracing  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No, it does not increase motor temperature. It helps cornering, and handling. It may also change how the car reacts when performing stunts.

    • @redbanditracing
      @redbanditracing  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Stay with stock, lighter diff oil make the car turn a lot sharper but spins out more often for me. As for the shocks stock is 60W front 50W rear, I like 80W all a round.

    • @redbanditracing

      On the front and rear pinion gear, there should be a hole for the center drive shaft to connect to.

      Make sure the tires didn’t come unglued, if that is fine I would check your fluids. I made a video on checking differential fluids. Traxxas doesn’t fill the diffs to correct level. All my new RC cars were all low on fluid from the factory.

    I have a question I have a Traxxas ledge and my front alignment seems off for some reason it seems like they want to point toe out I have no idea why is this a normal thing I just recently had my vehicle serviced and I haven't ran it yet but I've noticed it and is it normal or is it something I should be worried about

    • @redbanditracing
      @redbanditracing  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Usually the rear toe should be slightly inward to help track the front end. The front should be straight, mine is straight. The Sledge does have a few adjustments you can make. If you follow us on IG, you can always send us images so we can see what’s going on to better help.
