shock oil for beetle off-road/MB
I am going to be changing out the oil from my off-road Beetle and will be also using it with the monster tires. What shock oil do you recommend for this?

When i swapped the FG oil it was the begining of jumps and better traction.I m using Trinity 40wt in the back with the spacers and 30 in front without spacers.I find this works best for me

i've got 70 in the front with spacers 80 in the rear
i had to put the spacers on the front to keep the front end from smacking the ground.
ofna fliud
outside temp is 60s
2 gallons on the shocks
it seems as though i could use more dampening. thread i started got hijacked by dog lovers

Woof, Woof. Going to try the new oil setup as soon as the morning dampness is off the grass. Man, it's great to be retired, until you need to buy parts for the toys.
