60-80wt. I've always used 80wt, but thats in regular shocks.

funny, i do the exact opposite, I run 20wt in all except the right rear to counter torque twist, although i guess if you run a heavier super class rig heavier shock oil would work. With my tlt 60 wt wouldnt let my axles articulate.

Don't piggy pack shocks allow the shock to compress quicker, though?

My experience with Integy shocks is that the hole in the piston is smaller then typical shocks, therefore a thinner oil is needed for the same dampening. 80 weight in them would be stiff enough for my full size 3/4 ton!!! | |
