Building a DEX210

[jaank]

I'm about to buy a DEX210 and I need to clear up some stuff,
so I can buy the right stuff.

If I want to run the Cut Stagger or Minipin in front with the stock Durango wheels, without cutting or modifing anything do I buy the slim or regular front tires? Or maybe somebody could help me with the product codes for yellow compund?

Also which tools I need? I have 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3mm wrenches already.
What kind of greases I should buy for building the diff?

Both tyres will fit on the rim without modifing just looks weird with the slim but works, i think most use slim for cut stagger, i just cut the rim.

you'll need 0.050 imperial allen driver

greases for the diff come in the kit i think

The only grease you need is the geargreas. The other 2 are included in the kit.
You also need shockoil. 450cst is the manual setup.

Any ideas how to get the circlip out?
I have tools to get it, but they are too lousy to get it out.
And could someone recommend me a good pair of circlip pliers?

File down a cheap set of pliers from the $1 shop or something. That what I did and works well

I use black grease in the diff but others have used BG/2K/5K its up to you what you like.

What other oils, well have a look at petitrc and find a your track or something similar to get that set up sheet and go from there, OR do stock setup and do your own testing.

Only put the black grease on your thrust washers and balls.
Only use silicon diff lube on your diff balls don't put the black grease anywhere near your diff balls

It'll be a ball diff. Ignore this bit!

Shock oils around the 300-450 range seem to be "preferred" for the 210.
