Damper oil for LD10

Post by mikemillen »

The manual for the LD10 specifies "Luvax Piston Type Shock Absorber Oil" for the dampers.
Online searching indicates that this is a "Thin Oil", but I can't find a specific viscosity.
Penrite make a "Shocker Oil No.1" & "Shocker Oil No.2" but are pretty vague as to what they are, and there's no reference to Luvax in either case.

Dynolite, on the other hand, sell a "Shock Oil" which seems to me to be suitable for the Luvax piston units.

Does anyone have any experience with this oil, or any other suggestions?

Thanks for the confirmation, Simon.

I've ordered 2 litres, so I should have plenty to flush and refill all 4 dampers.
