I have to repair the transmission/middle transfer case on my madstorm.  I just want to know what kind of grease goes in there.  I am having to replace one of the gears and am afraid I need to put more grease back in. Please Help, NitroRCX's tech staff sure hasn't.

In the differential you mean?  Use silicon diff oil.

Maybe something sticky, try grease Molybdene, or lithium grease.

Because silicon diff oil does not lubricate the parts, it's just for the hardness of diff.

High temp axle grease has worked fine.  I am having trouble keeping it cranked which I am sure is an adjustment problem.  It cranks and runs for a while and then revs too high and needs to be shut off and restarted.  I will work out this problem, but high temp axle grease is working fine, thank you....
