There are two different kinds of HR shocks. Some have the seals and some do not. The ones that do not are not intended to be filled with oil. Although I know some people put thick grease in them. I have not tried them personally. I have not had any leakage out of these oil shocks though.

It’s nothing special to see. Just dripping the oil into the shock from above.

No leaks so far.

No seal that I could see. I tried oil in a set of their friction shocks and it leaked out pretty quickly. So far these are holding oil fine. Maybe the seal at the shaft is tighter? I'm not sure.

I don't have a video of it, but it's pretty simple. You just unscrew the bottom from the shock shaft and the spring slides off. I usually take a pair of needle nose pliers and wrap electrical tape around them. Then use them to grab the shock shaft to hold it while I unscrew it. The tape keeps the pliers from marking up the shaft.

Where are they leaking from? Top or bottom?

I haven't had a chance to test them outside yet, but will be doing that this week and will let you know more.

The weights aren’t called the same thing. In Asia 2000 is the same as 20 in the US. So they are suggesting 20-30wt. I put 25 in mine but I think it’s too heavy. 15 would be better.

@@CCRCAdventures thank you very much

25. But I feel like it was too heavy. i want to try something like 15.

I'm planning on it. Between work and bad weather I just haven't had a chance to. As soon as I get the time I'll get an updated video of them in the real world.

It's a little tricky since they are so small. What I did was put one drop in and let it sit for a minute, then moved the piston up and down to try to get out any air bubbles. If you do that just don;t move it up past the top of the oil level or you will be trapping more air. Once I did that I added one more drop and that pretty much filled it up.

@@CCRCAdventures I’m gonna have to try this. I ordered them, but they seem super stiff out of the box. Don’t think they’re supposed to run dry or something lol

@@smcarmel Yeah. I've never tried running them dry, but I would assume they aren't meant to be run that way. Do you have the actual oil shocks? They make a version not meant to hold oil as well.

@@CCRCAdventures ya I got both sets. I just got the emulsion ones in the mail a few days ago then stumbled across your video trying to get them workin

@@smcarmel I will say I'd prefer a lighter oil than what I used. Something in the 10-15 range would probably work better. That's just the lightest I had.

Zero leakage so far. Done a good bit of indoor running. A little outdoor but weather has been bad and been busy with work and family stuff. We have a crawling event planned for this weekend and will be testing them more in depth then.

@@CCRCAdventures so how did they do, leaking & function? In mine I noticed almost no action with 30wt. Made it really tippy side hilling.

Yes. No leaks that I can see. I haven't taken them apart to see the oil level, but I don't see any leaking.

@@CCRCAdventures I been waiting on some one to make real shocks for this truck since the first shipment of deadbolts

@@wildmangeorgesrcchannel6916 I'm going to go out on a limb and say that your wait is over. These are very promising so far. Time will tell how well they hold up.

True. But they come apart much like the stock shocks. Just take off the bottom collar from the shaft, take off the top cap, and it's apart.

Maybe. I'm working on a buggy build right now and may try them on that first

Nice! Are they worth it? I purchased some friction shocks from treal for 25 with no problems

@@Danielxperez14 I ended up returning mine because one of the shocks were seized.

@@bansheerider619 really?! thanks for the info
