I see that Moss sells stiffer valves for the lever
shocks on MGBs.  I also know that the shocks are
filled with "shock oil."

Two questions:

1)  What is shock oil?  I assume it's a straight
weight oil, but is it similar to anything?  Like 30w
motor oil or something?

2)  Based on the answer to #1 above, can I just change
the weight of the shock oil to change the stiffness of
the shocks, or will use of something other than shock
oil not produce consistent effects?

Thanks in advance,
