The truck is stock other than HD slipper pads, and whatever tires I choose to run.

It's setup to the style of a 2wd truck. Rear end is a little bit loose, but on power steering isn't a problem. I still have nerves whenever racing... I need a setup that is just a tad less twitchy. I am currently running 5000 weight oil in the front and rear diffs. I don't really want to mess with my shocks, or shock angles. It jumps perfectly.

Would going up to 7k in the rear, and 10k in the front help with my twitchyness, but still retain good steering?

I went to 30,000k front and 5,000 rear. I know it sounds crazy but truck is great. I let a couple of other guys who have same truck drive it and they loved it. First race with it TQed and won.
