Triumph Repair: Rear Shocks on 75 TR6, roadster factory, moss motors


Question
what type of oil to use.What should level be

Answer
Hi Garry,
If it is low and the shock is not working, it means it is leaking at the seals and I always filled mine up as it will push a little out from heat expansion and the shaft where the seal is will lower the level anyway.

The last time I got oil it was just Armstrong shock oil and most of the Triumph and MG parts suppliers have it the last time I looked.

Check with Engel Imports, Moss Motors, Victoria British, The Roadster Factory and British Parts North West. To name a few. They all have web sites and toll free numbers.
