Hi David,
Lot of differences of opinion on the type of lubricant. If you're not rough
on it I wouldn't worry to much by using what your manual recommends. On the
shocks, I changed to Tokico but that was because I got them for free,
benefits of being a DTOA member and entering a show. However, now that I
have them I wouldn't trade them for anything, even Bilsteins. I believe Jim
Harmon has also changed over to Tokico's. If you like cornering these guys
work pretty good. I would, however, recommend you change all of them at
once.
HTH,
