TMaxxDave Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 (edited) Hey everyone, has anyone heard of bad horsie? I've just been reading up on it. It sounds pretty good. It's a heavy grease which appears to give the effect of a limited slip diff or locked diff without actually locking it up.

Classicracer Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Hi I have used gravity rc 1 million or 2.5 million cst grease in the front diffs of everything from 1/10th touring cars to large scale petrol buggies and its awesome stuff. In some conditions an with the right suspension set up better than a LSD. Plus you can buy it in the UK now. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted September 19, 2014 Author Share Posted September 19, 2014 How much?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom3624 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Why would you want to pay THAT much for shipping, and with tracking? !! Paranoia or what!! Al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chewbacca Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I need something like that for the ball diff in Baby Badger. Failing that I'll just take the balls out and lock it up tighter than a ducks bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted September 19, 2014 Author Share Posted September 19, 2014 It's because they have had over half of international orders claim they have gone missing :-( Sent from my iPad Air using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted September 19, 2014 Author Share Posted September 19, 2014 (edited) Ive been doing more research and pricing up. With enough interest it can be worked out to about 5-6quid per pot inc delivery Edited September 19, 2014 by TMaxxDave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noj Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Honest opinion, not a winner on here... Having a locked/LSD diff is probably great for certain applications, but not all. Think on, the RC world moved on from grease to silicone oils, which have far more tuning potential being available in different weights. One tub of grease is just that, at the same grade/stiffness, so has no tuning benefits for someone who wants heavy front and heavier center, but light rear, for example.

SchrodeMode Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 I've used the Bad Horsie stuff in my Rustler, and Jato, it worked really well and stopped the wobbly wheelies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchrodeMode Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 No, I had picked it up when I was back in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted September 20, 2014 Author Share Posted September 20, 2014 Ahhhh. Always helps if your over there. Is it readily available over there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchrodeMode Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Yeah, they do have some shops that sell them, but they're a small company. Being as they're not a huge company, ordering from their site is the easiest, unless your LHS happens to be a seller for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMaxxDave Posted September 20, 2014 Author Share Posted September 20, 2014 From what ive found. Its not sold by anyone else other than BHR outside the US Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wade7575 Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 Try looking and see if you can find Mercury Marine Grease it should look brown in color and be very tacky and sticky,I have also used Marine Grade Wheel Bearing grease as well and it's pretty good. If you have sealed diff's I recommend diff fluid I always find it works better then Grease for me,I find the grease get's pushed away from the gears after a short while and then does not work as good over a longer period of time.
