Yeah, you really want to avoid anything thicker than 50w on the stock T Maxx shocks, they'll start popping caps. I think I ran 45 or 50 w on the four rears on mine with 40 in the fronts. The reason heavier in the rear is that most of the force is on them during hard accelerating turns. It slows their action down a little.

I think the stock oil already installed is 30w but could be wrong.
