Default Setting up my suspension?

I am running traxxas big bore XL shocks front and rear. I am wanting to keep the front end down on climbs and eliminate some torequest twist. Right now all four shocks have associated 20w oil in them. I am running axial 14x70 Springs. Black 1.04 in the rear and purple 1.43 in the front. I am also running pitbull rock beasts with crawlers innovations foams., medium in rear and soft up front. I have never really been good at tuning suspension on go fast cars and I am so new to crawling that I am really lost. Any suggestions? Someone told me to go stiffer in the rear than the front, does that work? Thank you in advance.

Stiffer in the front. Let the back of the truck do the work. You might want to step up the shock oil to 30wt. 20 is pretty light. Not bad if you want a more scale movement but if you want performance try something a little heavier. That's my .02 Many other will chime in.
