I've just finished putting my mad monkey together, I've taken it apart and done different things with the dif, tightening it as much as I can each time.
at the moment I'm certain the dif is slipping so I cleared the grease out of it (used a thin lithium grease) and put a thin smear of the grease provided in the kit.
when I try and roll the car along it's stiff and doesn't roll easily, the pinion on the motor isn't turned (brand new motor)
I don't think I can back the clutch off much more before the nut will come off.
at the moment, when the car is off the ground the left rear wheel spins under light power, but not the right,
sorry it's not much to go on, I'm used to things like Tamiya TL01's, ball diffs and slipper clutches are new to me!
is it better to have a thin amount of grease or a good amount of stiff grease?
