macnum
 

so my ansmann macnum should be here tomorrow, cant wait lol
what is the best shock oil to use and what is the best diff oil
thanks jake

I use Losi shock oil, very good.
About the diff grease, I use the stock one, dont know if it's good or not, but I have only this one.
Shum diff grease is the best for many driver. Tamiya or Asso ones are good too.

The grease that comes with it is annoyingly slimey, I think it's good enough. So don't worry about that but bearings and decent screws would be my first two things to make sure I had next time I build one.

If they only fixed those two things and put the price up 10 pounds it would be x10 times more awesome. Well a clear body on the kit versions like kits should have would be good too :)

Hi!
Well, I have seen that the majority is using 35WT oil in the front and 30WT oil in the rear. I have a bottle of Factory Team 35WT and another smaller bottle of Tamiya 600. I've put the kit oil in the rear shocks cas it seems thinner.

Zago you takl about asso oil right ?

I use 35 Losi on front and 30 Losi rear.

yes. Associated FT oil.

On our 2 rats we use Losi 35 in the fronts and Ansmann (Dr Liquid) 300cps (I think thats between 25 & 30 Losi) in the rears. Diff grease I've used Ansmann Molybdeen grease, which seems to be ok.... unless anyone knows different?

i use 40 in the front and 25 in the rear on the dirt at the pda sorry these are losi oils :thumbsup:

is there any good tips while in the process of building it i should do

here is a build thread from my blog

Has anybody noticed any difference between the front and rear wheels of the Macnum? I did not, but the part numbers are different...:confused:
