Shock Oil: Inferno MP-6 International

[Ericke1]

I'm in the process of completing my Inferno MP-6 International which I never built many years ago. I checked my tool box and I have shock oil of 30wt and 40wt left. I'm going to build the shocks tonight, can I use 40 in front and 30 in the rear for my maiden run or am I making a mistake?

Pics coming soon.

I have a GS Storm, which should be almost identical to your buggy. I run either 37.5 or 40 all around.

I already put 40 in front and 30 in the rear, hope I dont run into too many problems, The suspension is fab on this car

The only problem you would find would be handling issues. I think that lighter shock fluid in the rear will give you more rear traction. A lighter fluid up front would give you more steering. I can never remember this sort of stuff, so I may have it wrong.
