What kinda fluid do they need? How do I know it has enough fluid?

The rear shock is adjustable but the **** wont turn, what could cause this?

They are rebuildable by people like PEP for around 100+.

My dad thinks we can do the front ourselves cuz its not a gas shock (or sometihn like that). Would you recommend this? What kinda fluid should we use, is automatic transmission fluid really the best?
