Shock oil for KM

[rc_man1]

I was replacing my A-Arms and noticed my shocks just feel dry. I would like to open them up and fill them up with oil. There is so many weights out there i'm not sure which one I should use. I don't want the strocks to be super tuff but more like a med-heavy.. I run a lot of hills and most jumps are no higher than 5 feet. Any help would be great.

Thanks
Mike

Get some Dark Soul seals and use 15wt motorbike fork oil, a lot cheaper than buying HPI/KM shock oils.

I'd like to know myself.

I run 20wt and 10wt oil in mine.

I don't think I'm kidding either.

What flavor of Motor Oil? I was think of using 5W-30?

It's either that or 10w-30. :laugh:
