Problems with filling B4.1 shocks
 

Hi,

I have some problems with filling the B4.1 FT shocks,
I can't get them equal...

Could you guys help me, or give some tips? :D

Thanks,
Martijn

Get the bleeder caps, well worth the money IMO, and transform even the std shocks, yet alone the v2 shocks.

Hope this helps

1. Pull shock shaft to bottom
2. fill nearly to the top with oil
3. pump the shaft up and down 2-3 times till the bubbles come to the top and pull the shaft down to the bottom again.
4. Once bubbles have dissapeared top the shock up with oil just above the top of the shock body.
5. Screw on bleeder shock cap
6. Slowly push the shaft up to the top so any excess oil comes out of the hole in the shock cap.
7. Insert screw
8. Now check the rebound the shock has by pumping the shaft up and down a few times. Push the shaft to the top and let go then see how far the shaft comes out. I normally run about 1 or 2 mm of rebound. Other people differ.
9. If the shaft comes out too far, take the bleeder screw out and slowly push the shaft up to the top again.
10. Repeat on the shock and they should be the same.

Any questions or queries please ask!!

Yeah, I'v done this like 5 times ^^
I thought there had been more rebound, only 1-2mm, do you run on carpet or dirt?

Thanks for helping!

Astro turf and carpet usually.
Never had too much of a problem with matching the shocks with the bleeder shock caps.

Well, I have ;)
I had no problems with the old B4 shocks
