Looking for some advice on what people are running for oil, piston and springs.
I have a XL kit, built it up. Stock springs, 37.5 oil front, 30 wt oil in back. Did not feel good on the "bench" test, so I moved the rear shocks to the "back" locations top and bottom.
The front just feels "dead." No ride height, no rebound, nothing.....lol.
I built the shocks with Associated green slime on the seals, pistons and shafts seem to move "ok" with no oil in them. Not as smooth as what I am used to (1/10th scale 2wd electric buggy shocks) but, this is larger and heavier, so I assume there will be more stiction in the shocks.
Anyway, what to do about the front end? I drove it for literally 45 seconds and it pissed me off so bad I stopped.
