Default Right springs?

I started off with the RTR springs and put in the softest springs I could find on all 4 shocks..
Now I am finding that I can not go up some rocks I could before because of articulation...
Does anyone have suggestions for the softness/stiffness of the springs?
Thanks

I heard you could heat up the springs to take the temper out of them to make them softer.

there are lots of threads about this.but use thicker shock oil to slow travel speed down.and you may not like that. speed,droop,lenght,stiffness,shock postion, are all things you can try. but imo i would not heat the springs as they are inexpensive
