Does anyone know the weight of the shock oil used by Traxxas in an off-the-shelf Sport?

Can someone explain how to change the oil in the stock shocks? I've read that 35wt. gives good racing suspension, but does anyone have other recommendations?

Thanks for the assist.

Great question. It appears that one end of the shock may unscrew, is that correct?
