I would look at the thickest shock oil you can find 80w and up, or possiably thick diff oil. Experiment with a few types and see what you like!

The oil has to be dense or more liquidate which(who) is better

A higher weight oil should make the shocks less reactive.

I have been experimenting with 60w-80w Associated Shock Oil.

I run 100w Trinity oil in my Hustler Super with Traxxas Big Bores and the RCP internal springs.

If you're running sub-c knuckle packs, go with 1000w diff oil. I tried it, but my rig is very light, as I run Lipo in the chassis, and I found the 1000w a bit too thick for my set up. Just keep experimenting until you find what works the best for you.
