hello. i have a jammin x1 crt. and have been having probs with the front tires. expanding at high speeds. not sure what weight diff lube to use. 10k in the center 5k rear. and what would be good for the front? or what would be good 4 all 3 diffs?

At high speeds, all tires will expand.
If you are talking about from a dead stop, you need to go up in the center.
To keep tires from expanding at all, you can run duct tape around the inside of the tire and it will keep it from expanding.

LPR Tires won't expand as much as Standard MT Tires

Stiffer/new foams might help, also.

Go for 20 or 30 in the center. You may also need new foams.

thicker center diff oil, its unloading to the front wheels

20-30-1 is a very good fluid setup for the crt thats what ive been running

Might want to add some more anti squat too that might help a little to help transfer more traction to the front.

just go up on the center diff oil, antisquat isnt going to do anything to stop that

Well it won't help ballooning that's a seperate issue.
