with oils that high you dont get the benefit of the faster rebound, kinda defeats the purpose, the truck will "skip" over the small stuff especially with a light truck. Im a flow driver also coming from an onroad background too, did you even try the thinner oils?
remember the point of 2 stage is to allow the shocks to absorb the small stuff while having enough pack for the hard landings. if your oil is that thick the compression is already too slow so even the "quicker" rebound is also going to be too slow. On a flat ultra high grip track (astro turf, carpet) you would be fine but i promise you will achieve faster laptimes with oils in the sub 30 range, thats how i designed them!

Anyway, if I went past what rcshox says is its safe zone, I would not quarrel if it broke... it's not an expensive part. So it hasn't broke so far, if it does Marcus will see another order from me

I will switch between the VTS and the v2 Center diff.
Reason being: I am about ready to throw the whole diff in the garbage after installing 5 of those pins.
This has nothing to do with the quality of the product and only with my annoyance of tiny parts that won't install quickly.

That's why I've been selling an aluminum clutch basket.

Give pins & ball cups a good clean....
The Ae VTS slipper performance is the best , better keep it handy as you may need it again ...

Check to make sure you have not tighten down any of the shock lock nuts to tight . Also look for bent suspension pins & bent shock shaft .
