- Changed the rear diff fluid to 500 k fluid in hopes to get the rear to slid instead of diffing out (rear wheel on the ground to stop turning and digging into the ground and causing it to flip) watch to the end to see if it works ??? Thanks for watching

I just built a max all parts from Jenny’s.
Wheels / body / receiver and ESC then it’s 100%.
Can’t wait it’s so close. ❤️👊😀
Thanks for the video! I'll definitely change the diff oil today
Xmaxx Fan 💪💪👍👍🔥🔥
GREAT VID BROTHER. Was tuning in to see what exterior diff grease you used. STAY UP🤜🤛💯🍻✌️
Badass man I doin the same right now! and I got the wide maxx kit too.thsnks for the tip buddy
No problem 💪💪🔥🔥👍👍
Helped a lot. Thanks
nice job homey!!!!
Dakind brew thanks
i have my typhon tuned in so perfectly, it slides just like that, at nearly full throttle. on a course, it would smoke my Xmaxx, theres no comparison of the two, one 2 pounds & one is 28 pounds, but ill tell you, the Xmaxx is fun in the dry dirt, but the typhon i love in the rain. it drifts perfectly.
Awesome I’ll have to maybe watch a video in detail about this work since I’m new to these things
Dan Berger yes going to post a stock one next to it should help 💪💪👍👍🔥🔥thanks for watching
Great video. I’m picking one up soon and the only thing that bothered me about it was how easily it flips over. I’ll have to try this out after constantly rolling it starts annoying the hell out of me
Yes me to the widemaxx kit is the best option now 🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🙏🙏🙏
Wide kit with belted tires makes a big difference.
Great job on the Read diff service
El Mascarado thanks works great
@@earlmoorhead5555 looking to buy one in the next day or so. Waiting on the LHS shipment to arrive. Most people running the vehicle on youtube have the flipping problem. They need to watch your Vid
El Mascarado yes I agree just a few adjustment and it’s a real fun rc to bash with I really love this maxx I’m sure you’ll agree when you get yours if you need any help I’m more than happy to help you set it up thanks for watching brother 👍🤙🏻💪💪
@@earlmoorhead5555 much appreciated. Thank you.
@@earlmoorhead5555 pulled the trigger on the Maxx today. SO MUCH FUN. Ripped around on it for 2 hours. Insane power.
Hey Earl thanks for the video, in one of your videos you were going to seal the diffs to keep water and sand out, is the 500 diff fluid so far the best way to do that? and also you said you were going to heat up the fluid before you put it in, how did you heat it up and how much are you putting in there? sorry for all the questions.
I use a heat gun and I fill it 3/4 the way full and use grease on the gasket to seal up the diff 💯💯🔥🔥🔥
Awesome work....I just started taking mine apart to do the same thing.
93Cobra it’s so much better now ! It sure is a lot more screws to remove the diffs compared to the xmaxx but it’s well worth the work
@@earlmoorhead5555 Hey man, just wondering how often should I change the differential fluid. Thanks
Yea sand is definitely an issue with the maxx. Specially near the pinion and spur area, just an insane amount of sand that gets in there from beach runs.
yea.. because you were on a beach, i avoid sand and water for obvious reasons.
Thanks for good info videos. Could you give me some guidance on grease you use or is it ok to use any generic auto grease
Any auto grease works great I use disc brake wheel bearing grease from AutoZone 🔥🔥👍👍👍👍
Hi Earl, Are you still happy with just changing out the rear to 500? Also what do you recommend to get it to wheelie less?
I’ve converted to the widemaxx and changed up the shocks to get it to wheelie less run it on 3s helps a lot 👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@earlmoorhead5555I convert to the Widemaxx also. Should I leave the rear diff alone or should I still change it to 500?
Lower center diff fluid.
Nice video. Does Traxxas 5039 500k diff lube work?
Spencer Cleland yes makes a big difference I want to do the front next but going to test against a stock one first today 💪💪👍👍💪🔥
👌
Gégé RC defourayeur 8306 💪💪👍👍🔥🔥
😊
If I didn't want to fully lock, what would you recommend and what do you think 200k would be like?
Not fully lock I would run 1 mill
I'll tell ya what works really really good in that rear diff ...... Epoxy...... Make it a Parma positrack Also the the widening kit and the tires need to be replaced with larger wider tires and you will eliminate roll over well not eliminate but greatly reduce it
👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥thanks for that appreciate the information 🙏🙏
I second this for sure.. epoxy and super Glue here.
Jahkee Thomas superglue whatcha do with superglue in a diff just mix it togeather ??👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@earlmoorhead5555 before the Super Glue in then you sprinkle in baking soda Harden's the super glue like a rock
GREAT idea you just saved me money from buying the extended arms thank you! whats the weight you have in the front for the front diff?
I run a stock fluid in the front diff in this video to get the rear to slide instead of biting and rolling over 🔥🔥👍👍👍👍
@@earlmoorhead5555 yes but what weight is it do you know?
@@chuckwalters4759 It's 50k
The center differential is not supposed to have grease on the outside of it the more grease you use the more sand going to collect
The ring gear needs the grease as you see on my arrma outcast video when I removed the diff cover it’s all in the same spot arrma greases as well you just want the grease to suck into the ring gear as it flings off when running also the cover really need to be sealed up better to keep sand and dirt out it should never get sand or dirt in that area 💯💯👍👍🔥🔥🔥
What oil did you use in the centre and front please ?
Can you use silicone earplugs on the traxas maxx on all the diffs?
I wouldn’t the center diff is on but the front rear will brake axles for sure 🔥🔥💯💯💯💯
The way that chassis is made on that and the x-max it's just like a bathtub anything that gets in there's going to stay it's ridiculous they did it that way
Yo Earl did you ever end up doing the front diff fluid
Big Kahuna R.C. I have it apart right now waiting on more fluid 🔥🔥💪💪👍😜😜🥴
Which is wheelie/backflip king? Outcast 4s or 6s?
That would be the 6 s outcast on 4s backflips wheels and tires 🔥🔥👍👍
Did you change the front diff fluid as well?
Ron Corris Jr I did not I’m testing the fluid change just in the rear only right now to see if it’s needed
What's the difference between 500k and 1m
1 m double the thickness 🔥🔥👍👍
Stock shock weights?
No ended up at 80 k all around 👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Can yu help me understand what is happening when it "diffs out" ? Thanks man
Diff out on an open diff ( thin fluid) allows the rc to spin the wheel that doesn’t have traction ( the one in the air ) so the rc stays planted on the ground 👍👍🔥🔥💯💯💯💯
So your putting the 500k in the rear diff to stop the front tire from spinning ? I'm trying to understand whats happening before vs. after the change in diff fluid. Sorry if it sounds like a dumb question
I put thicker fluid to make the rear end spin around instead of diffing out and causing it to roll over I believe that was this video been awhile since I’ve seen it 🙏🙏💯💯💯
@@earlmoorhead5555 Absolute Genius, i believe the entire maxx community believes that you need the "wide maxx kit" in solving rolling over when in fact its the diff weight all along!!
@@earlmoorhead5555 will it make wheelie less
Did you put 500k in the center diff as well?
No I left it stock 👍👍
@@earlmoorhead5555 did you put 500k in the front or rear
@@thenerfer4263 just the rear to get it to slide
@@earlmoorhead5555 did it make it wheelie less
@@thenerfer4263 to make it wheelie less you need thin fluid in the center diff that will add power to the front end when it try’s to lift the front wheels the rear diff does side to side 👍👍
I got this truck for Christmas and it was one of the biggest mistakes I've made buying RC cars
Wow really that sucks at least it holds it value good luck 👍
I just bought one and I absolutely love it
1 year later...why are you not happy?
Best rcs outthere
You run maxx 2WD? OR Still 4WD
My traxxas maxx is 4x4
How you setting the maxx can do a donut without be flip? Changing diff oil 500k ,make more stable on maxx?
th-cam.com/video/CyE3XiuB7Gk/w-d-xo.html
It does great 👍 set up good now 👍👍🔥🔥💯💯
It’s more stable took a widemaxx kit and setting up the shocks correctly to get it really where I wanted it the rear diff was my first mod I did many more and shared the whole thing on TH-cam for everyone to see 👍👍🔥🔥💯💯both are set up the same as I have two now 🔥🔥💯💯💯
Sand, noooooooooooooo........
megadads1 ya sucks took forever to clean it up 💪💪👍👍thanks for watching
Stop burning your tires!!!
Those where some Epic slowmoe 🥯. 💯🔥🥯 💯🙏
Thanks 🙏
