To be honest theres not much advantage using the bleeder caps... I followed the instructions word for word, but only a small amount of oil actually bled out.... & the shocks are still squelchy!
Maybe i'll have to try different techniques - but I guess squelchy shocks are a trait of the 'emulsion' type design. For obtaining consistant re-bound I didn't find I had a problem using the old ali caps, but I guess the bleeder caps makes that side of things easier? However they certainly seem more consistant at sealing the rubber o'ring - I always had one or two shocks spring a leak after a short while using the old caps.
Welshy40... you are forgiven
For sure the wheels are the single peice 2.2 inch items from a B2/B3
Its really nice to drive actually - a little sensitive to unforgiving bumps/lumps maybe, which is a little at odds with a general tendancy for understeer (even on astro) But generally it feels nice and robust, & there's something rather satisfying driving a car you've revived thats 17 or so years old yet keeping the modern cars at bay
