Default Which wt shock oil?

Im going to turn my clod into a 2.2 if that even matters. Im running the stock rear rustler shocks on a soon-to-be NN chassis and im wondering what weight oil i should use in my shocks.

It depends alot on how stiff your springs are.
With the Pede front shocks and super soft Losi springs on my 2.2 I use 30 wt.
With Maxx length shocks and springs or with the stiffer Losi springs I use 50 wt.

I can't wait until I get my cane and start smacking down the umm I'm not sure if I can say what I'm smacking.

As for my big crawler, I'm running traxxas shocks and I think I have 50 weight in them. Not too sure but might switch over to a lighter. Quicker flex of the shocks.
