Has anyone found out the best viscosity to fill in the shocks on the MT yet. in rc-car-online standard. i have read someone vas using 200wt with good luck. is there someone else who is using that oil thickness.

To be honest m8 you need to experiment yourself, no two people want the same handling. If you want to go round corners fast and not roll then thinner should do the job, but if you want to do large jumps thicker will be the order of the day. I've tried thinner oil myself and tried taking shocks off, i've found a compromise that lets me corner fast without rolling over and do smallish jumps.As soon as i hit a big jump it just bottoms out. Also i'm all alloy now and the suspension set up im using is friction free which has helped alot in my opinion.

Is the 45 and 50 oil the same as 400 to 500 in rc-car-online standard? i am a bit confused about these different standards in oils. Thanks for replys guys.
