Default Who's running 1000wt oil in the stock shocks?

I bought some Ofna 1000wt oil after reading the article in the special edition Rock Crawler Magazine from R/C Car Action. I also switched the front springs to the medium axial springs. I don't...it just seems super stiff. Any else running this? Should I wait till I get all my tires on and truck full together?

I run 1000wt, but I am running full droop. I don't know how it would perform with sprung shocks. Anything is worth trying once right? Give it a go and let us know how it ran!
