If it bottoms out then try a thicker oil.

I ran 70 wt oil in my ue. Farthest hole out on arm. It worked great. I have heard some run as much as 100 wt.

NOthing wrong with ue for sure. I just got the bypass and want to try them. They seem to do well so far. I tried the 6 ft drop test and work well. :D
I don't even know the oil that is in them yet. The buggy shocks had oil in them and so did the by pass.

I tried the set up today. Man was it nice. I don't think the truck bottomed out from jumps all day. It was sweet and drove great to. I may have it a touch stiff but I like it still. I let you know on the garage jump if it bottoms out. May try the shed jump first to see. :026:

6 foot drop test, holy moly!! I think my truck would cause a minor earth quake dropped from that high. I really need another set of the UE's then and some heavy oil to go with um.

Coolhand, the Bypass' have 30wt :p

100 wt are in my UE's right now. I did purchase a bottle of 35 wt today and will use it in my second set of UE's. Im running black springs in back and blues up front. It slaps the ground from less then 15" when dropped.

I spent 6 hours working on my truck today :027: and I loved it :043: Cut to length and shrink wrapped all wiring and used my 16 cell IB 4200's for the first time. EEOWSERS! :004:
