The diffs (ringgear/pinion) are used with grease, the internal gears of the diffs are used with silicone oil.

Thread moved to FLM.

I use White lithium grease on the ring/pinion gear and Ofna Green Stuff Differential grease for inside the diff cups.

I use Protech Speed greese on pinion/bevel gears and oils inside.Oil can completely change handling of the truck. After trial/error i ended up with 7k in front and 10k in rear.

That green stuff is a horror for (most) o-rings. with 1/8th diffs, you are better off using silicone inside the diffs.
