I'm running a D4 with losi shocks on astroturf.

I'm looking for heavier damping up front Currently I have up till 42.5wt but don't like the handling (lots of grip roll and nose diving when breaking)

Any suggestions on which oil/viscocity to buy ? Maybe using other pistons ?

Also regarding to oils there is eg. 40wt but also 700cst. What does it mean?

Are you using the Losi black pistons and limiters? Should make quite a difference.

Or possibly a front anti-roll bar?

Handy Oil charts (and others) on PetitRC,

and a damping coefficient chart that looks like it would be useful, but a bit beyond me I am thinking.

also look into tire inserts
