John,
I had an old article about repairing these shocks. The article recommended
motorcycle fork oil. Readily available and cheap.

Subject: TR-3A - Rear shock absorber fluid
Has anyone on the list topped up the fluid in their TR-3A rear shock
absorbers? The standard recommendation seems to be Armstrong Hydraulic
Fluid (?), but it is quite expensive and must be mail ordered from Moss.
How about hydraulic jack fluid that can be found in any automobile supply
store? Would that be suitable?
Thanks.
