Default Shock oil amount/wt.

I need to re-fill my stock 1994 FLHTC shocks with oil.
How much and what kind? I can't find the info anywhere.
I might use them for passenger and my back, has short shocks now.
Thanks

Rear Shocks? Or Fork tubes?
For rears. Forks hold 8oz each side. Theres alink on the Fork link on oil weights. Hope this helps.

Thanks, good reading about the shocks.
Just what I needed to know.
I'll try the Spectro, 350cc/5 lbs-solo.

All types of holsters, mrhallholsters.com

I haven't done my rear shocks yet. That is one of this winter's projects. I saw those posts and saved them in favs. Looks fairley simple. I have done my front fork oil with a vacum pump. Works great.

I've never did the shocks either, but I will this winter too!
Thanks again. I see nothing wrong with it, safety that is.
