Hi guys,
i need to sort out the shocks on my DBXL 2.0.
Ive already replaced the stock springs with the DDM Black springs all round, but no difference really. I think the shocks are only half full (at best) of fluid as i can hear the squishing sound quite loudly when compressing the shocks. Ive not yet taken them apart but i know at very least they are going to need fluid.
When I press down on the rear there is pretty much zero rebound!? The shocks themselves show signs of no leaks etc so I'm thinking its simply because the factory did a very poor job of filling them up!?
So what's best combo here, Are the DDM black springs good enough (they claim that they give 20% stiffer performance over the stock) & what shock oil is best? would 50wt shock oil all round be a good choice?
Any info much appreciated! ty
