I run a heavy oil.in mine 55 rear and 60 up front. I also use hot racing yeti springs in the rear the green ones and im using limiting straps all the way around too.. Mines unstoppable until something breaks.lol.. Im constantly tuning my rigs.. This setup is almost perfect for U4 racing in auburn..hope thus helps alittle..

i think the heavier oil is defiantly the way to go. im running 40 up front and 50 in the rear, stock springs in the rear and stock slash white springs up front... ill be adding the limit straps as well.

how about input on shock location

Poop, one rule of thumb is you always want a thicker weight inthe front over the rear. If you switch that weight up it wil handle even better.. If your jumping it then you really want that heavier weight oil.in the front.."thumbsup"

As far as shock location i put the front top screw all the way on the inside mount location and rears i keep in the stock location..:)
