RE: stock shock oil
Not sure what the stock oilweight is, but I put 70 weight back in my Tornado S30 shocks.. (heavier weight (thicker) oil makes the shocks react slower andhelps stiffen upthe suspension)I think the stock oil would of been fine, but with mine, it had either leaked out or was notfilled enough from the factory? After rebuilding and filling the stock shocks (blue aluminum/threaded body) with the proper amount of oil, they feel pretty good.. NowI'd like to find some stiffer springs.. (For nowI've just preloaded the stock springs byscrewing down the ride hieght nut a bunch..) But Im hoping to keep it from bottoming out too badwhen I jump it.. We'll see!!
