Default Gmade shocks

so I just received my new gmade 103mm piggyback shocks. So far I really like them, but who wouldn't if your upgrading from stock to a high end product? If anyone has tricks, suggestions on tweaking them out for rock crawling. I just put the stock oil that came with them in em. It's rather thin but I wanted to set them up as "factory" before I start playing with them. I will say that I was disappointed to find out the piggyback reserver was plastic, but with the bump stoppers it shouldn't blow the threads. Thanks to all that can give me pointers.

Sounds like your on the right track! Just tune the shocks to your driving style, for me I run a thicker oil in the rear and none in the front with full droop and I prefer internal springs, my rig weighs 3lbs 7oz with knuckle weights up front!

Eliminate the bump stops, they don't do anything. They also reduce travel for no reason. I have been running without the bump stops for 2 years without issue.
