Can anyone tell me how to get better traction? Now I have dirt hawgs and I'm using softer springs. I get good traction on loose dirt but thats it. I thought about getting gladiators for grass. Should I try a different shock set up?

My Dirt Hawgs provide plenty of traction. I'm using 50wt oil in front and back. If I'm not carefull my truck flips when making sharp turns...

I run mainly in grass (short), gravel and dirt. I was using heavier oil in the rear shocks but, lost traction and sability. it wanted to hop around. I think I have 30wt now and sticks better.
I think I'll stay with the hawgs and change the gear ratio. I also thought about getting dirt works. Do these have better traction on the road?
