if you are on a high grip track then strong drag brake or running strong initial braking will cause weight to transfer faster than needed. as the weight is slung to front it will cause the pushing.

I would try black front springs with 37.5 losi oil and pink rear springs.

stiffer front springs and oil will help weight transfer under braking/slowing for corner entry.

Are rear pistons tapered? just wondering if running tapered rears and standard fronts would be causing faster dive as weight moves away from rear

try dropping ride height to 18mm too... i found the 22 is very sensitive to ride height

Have you tried changing back to standard body? the forward cab could be giving too much downforce on front end... not really something the 22 needs on slower sections but i found it does help high speed corner stability.

The chassis mod sounds interesting, got any pics?... i tried rotated saddles on mid car but kept motor guard as removing it gave far too much chassis flex front to back, assume you have removed guard and use a turnbuckle to stop this?

As Gnarly says, Kick up and castor angle are important and strongly affect the weight transfer.
Very good point with the drag brake yeah I was running 10% drag just to try it and forgot about that... Supposed that wouldn't of helped
