<div>Hi Fred, I've just been looking into this as well. >From what I have found out,  hydraulic jack oil ISO68 is the closest to the original oil.  Many use motorcycle shock oil too

<div>My shock oil is low.  What type of oil can I refill the shocks with?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Is it true that I can use motorcycle fork oil as a substitute?</div>
