210 Gear diff oil ?
How do lads,
What oil do you run in a dex210 gear diff on a high grip astro track (bury), and do you go thicker or lighter for low grip tracks? Thanks in advance Matt

Black grease which I have heard is the same as both 2K and 5K????
Maybe thats got to do with how much you put in? Id say 2, 3 or 5 Im going to try the ball diff tomorrow on our track |

I'm trying 5000 tomorrow at batley last week I had 1000 , I know it's a big jump but I've only had 4 outdoor meetings , so I want a big contrast so I can tell the difference

Do you measure your oil in weight or cst ?
I've just tried Durango Diff oil 50000cst which I think converts to around 2000wt, is that correct? The diff feels like a tight ball diff if that makes sense.

I dont understand why these strong number oils are being used in diffs the whole point of one is to get rid of slip which is the reason you have a ball diff so tight (compared to a touring car) so it dont slip with gears you could run 50 oil with no slip

I think its to slow the diff action so that you don't "diff out" (as easily).
