Shock oil

[Ludabud]

What is a good weight oil for the stock shocks on the MT? Good for bashing. And how much do you put in each shock?

I ran 40 to 45 in all four shocks. Take the lower shock cap off and fill up to the bottom of the threads in the shock body. Thread the shock cap back in half way, then slowly push the shock shaft all the way in and tighten up the shock cap. Some shock oil will leak out, that's normal. You're just trying to get out as much air as possible.

Not that uncommon. I find empties or partial filled all the time. It is not a Redcat thing only. I have found poorly filled shocks on every brand I've owned.

Should I get new o-rings just to make sure I have a nice new seal? Prolly wouldn't hurt anything.
