My son and I just got one of each Slash.
The 2WD will be run at the local track bone stock. Can't change anything on it other than shock mount points, camber, oil, that kind of stuff. (the 4WD is mod and anything goes).

But as a starting point, what is the oil that is in these shocks from the factory?

I have to read the manuals a bit more thouroughly, but didn't see it mentioned in the first go through.

Thanks

Im not 100 percent sure, but I think the the stock shocks only come with 30wt in them.

You would do well to replace it with some quality silicone oil.

You will get many different opinions, but find out what others at your local track are using and give that a go.

I put 40wt all around in my sons stock Slash. That was a good starting point.

the fronts usually have 35w and rears 40w. i always change this to 50-60w silicone from the LHS. the stock oil is crap
