What pinion gear should I use on the TLR 22-4 2.0?

It depends on your motor and the track. In the 1/10 4WD buggy class, racers gear by final drive ratio: 6T and below near 10.66, 7.5–8.5T near 10.00, 13.5T near 7.95. On the 22-4 2.0's stock 84T spur that is about 18T for 6T and below, 19T for 7.5–8.5T, 24T for 13.5T. Tight tracks gear down, open tracks gear up. For a starting pinion matched to your motor, use the So Dialed Pinion Recommender with the 22-4 2.0 selected.

What is the internal ratio (transmission ratio) of the TLR 22-4 2.0?

The 22-4 2.0 has an internal ratio of 2.3:1. Final drive ratio = spur ÷ pinion × 2.3. With the stock 84T spur, a 16T pinion gives an FDR of 12.07 and a 28T gives 6.90.

How many teeth is the stock spur gear on the TLR 22-4 2.0?

84 teeth. Changing the spur moves every pinion's ratio at once; most racers leave the spur and tune with the pinion.

What shock oil does the TLR 22-4 2.0 come with?

Out of the box the 22-4 2.0 runs 37.5 wt front, 32.5 wt rear (Team Losi oil), on 2 x 1.6mm (#233008) front, 2 x 1.7mm (#233010) rear pistons. That is the kit setup; you will need to adjust it for your track conditions. The RC Setup App can help dial it in.

What springs does the TLR 22-4 2.0 come with?

The kit springs are Blue (#5183) front, Yellow (#5167) rear. Stiffer springs suit high grip and big jumps; softer springs add grip on slick or bumpy tracks.

What diff fluid does the TLR 22-4 2.0 come with?

The kit diff fluid is 50,000 cst front, 50,000 cst rear. Thicker front adds steering on power; thicker center sends more drive rearward; thicker rear stabilizes the car under throttle.
