Rtr comes with 30/10 F/R. I ran 30/20 on my stocks before the rig started getting heavier with aluminum upgrades. I run prolines all the way around now with 40/30 and stiffer springs.

45wt/30wt (front/rear Associated oil) for everyday bashing. The 10wt that comes in the kit is pretty much useless to me. If I am running trails it's okay, not really. Any kind of speed and any kind of bump/jump and the rear will bottom out...serious donkey kickin' going on.

I am running yellow (stiffer axial springs) on the front. Oil is 40 front 20 rear for me and it works great! It's a heavy vehicle, and the front was just sitting too low in the travel all the time with the stock springs. Rear is fine as long as you add thicker oil. |

My current setup: front: Oil: 700cst (think. approx 60wt) Spring: blue 70mm axial spring. Tried it first as it was recommended in many build threads here and it was perfect. rear: Oil: 500 cst (think app. 40wt) Springs: 54mm white and red ones out of the hot racing front spring set, using the spring connectors i found on a part tree of my kit. Happy so far with this setup till now. Maybe i have to go up with the Oil cause my little monster gets heavy with all the upgrades. |
