Default Shock oil weight

Hello everyone,

I purchased a VS4-10 Pro yesterday and want to make sure I have everything I need to build when it arrives. I noticed shock oil is one of the things that's required according to the Vanquish website. I can't seem to find any recommended oil weights though. Does anyone here have any suggestions?

On a separate note, I was also looking for the vehicle weight. Does anyone happen to know what that is?

Thanks!

I run 35 or 40 wt in mine, with it weighing in at just a tad over 8 pounds with a shorty 3S pack.

I have 45wt oil in my Ultra with yellow Incision springs in the front and blue Incision springs in the rear.

My problem is keeping the oil in the shock, these are leakers. Did the green slime thing and 3 of the 4 shocks leaked within days after completing my build.

Interesting, mine has been sitting on the bench for a few weeks now and no leaking. I used green slime as well but I used 80wt oil. We will see what happens once I start running the rig.
