I have to say that there did not look like there was going to be enough shock oil in the kit, but there was, with a small amount to spare. This is mentioned in the instruction manual, but as assembly is fairly obvious the instructions might not be read: when attaching the Ball Cup to the Shock Shaft be careful not to damage the shaft with pliers as this will damage the oil seal. Hold the shaft in a few folds of paper and use a little grease on the thread.
