|  shock oil weight ?
just a quick question I have a stock rubicon and I believe the stock shock oil is 30 weight so I was wondering if going up in weight will affect side hilling and things like that in a positive or negative way thanks.

| Re: shock oil weight ?
I don't know exactly what effect it would have, but I know that when I was running the stock shocks, 30wt oil didn't provide near enough damping. Pushing on the truck resulted in a quick springy rebound as if there were no oil in them at all, so I put 60wt in them just to get them to function as a proper shock absorber.

I just added 55wt to my crawler king's shocks and it made a big difference. It didn't want to roll as much and the CK is really top heavy
