After market shock

[ill]

I was wondering if someone knows the oil weight that comes stock in after market shocks?

Thanks for the help

It could be anything or no oil at all. It's like asking what kind of carpet comes with a house...

Welcome in @ill , for the most part, the shocks don't come with oil so it's a matter of choice.
Don't be afraid to ask anything here, some houses have hardwood floors.

Industry standard is 30W however there are no guarantees, it would be best to contact the specific supplier to get a definite answer.

Regardless, I find it best practice to rebuild any RTR components by applying a fresh coat of grease on all rubber seals to prevent leaks

At that point you can tune to your personal preference on fluids you are using and go from there.

Also keep in mind that temperature will effect weights and is something to consider as seasons change:
