Default 777 setup

I am getting alot of bounce with my setup what can I do to stop the buggy from bouncing all over the place?
my shock oil is 40 all around.
Also have a question with diff oil I used the oil that came with the kit red oil in frt, 4000 center and 1000 rear?
seem like I have a ton of wheel spin what can I do?

yeh my setup helps alot it stops most of the bounce and makes it a plush ride.
also i am not sure if this is said but i use 30 weight in my mugen and madmaniac uses 40weight i think shock oil weights will need to be decided by you dpending on how plush you want it.

got you a copy of Greg Deganis set up from Hemet

5574 of 5674 by greg degani (gregdeg) on Mon Oct 4 19:46:03 2004:

Got Back from Hemet car worked really well on Saterday, did lots of
testing with different set-ups. Finished third and almost won it but
crashed at the end..I had gotted lapped 7 minutes into the 15 minute
main by chad but i managed to put in fast laps in the last 7 minutes
and un-lapped myself and almost one but i blew it with 45 seconds
left..anyway Found a decent set-up for bumpy tracks. Diff
5000,7000,1000. 22 degree front caster, Front oil 60wt 1.4 rear oil 35 wt 1.4 Front upper link
long, "High block""A" Middle steering hole on steering link. Shocks
inside on arm,inside on tower 14 mm ride hight clips front.
Rear end.. Shocks inside hole arm Second hole from inside on tower, Use
the upper shock holes on the tower. 3 degree toe in,2 degree antisquat.
Rear hubs back, use bottom hole hinge pin on hubs. 17 mm ride-hight
clips. Full travel front and rear(in the front yur travel is limited by
the arms hitting the chassie...and in the rear your travel is limited
by the shocks in the top holes in the tower) So no need to mess with
your droop screws..Hope that covers it..
