What weight shock oil are you running?

[Qckslvr]

I am rebuilding the shocks on my Genius XR4. Genius recommends 8000 front and 5000 rear which I am ok with trying. But Genius branded shock oil is not easly found here in the US. So I was recommend Kyosho shock oil, which I can find at almost all the hobby stores.

what I can’t find though is a weight conversion chart. Kyosho rates their oil in Cst, I am no sure what Genius uses.

so I am open to some shock oil recommendations. Or even a conversion chart from what ever Genius uses to Cst or Csp oil.

What are you running front and rear?

FG is the same way, with the high numbers. If you can't find cst of the Genius I would try something along the lines of losi 80wt. There are 6 packs for like $22 out there with 50wt-100wt.
