Shock Fluid For mad rat Buggy

Post by MICK3Y »

Hello all,

I have got some shock fluid and i dont know which one goes on the front and back of the shock absorber.
They are different density, one is 25wt and the other 30wt, which one goes on the front and for the back. :D

THanks

Hi Michael,

You'll want to use the thicker oil (i.e. 30wt) in the front. Although you might want slightly thicker oil all round - perhaps 35wt in the front and 30wt in the rear.

Cheers
