Shock set up

[carlin]

Hi Guys,

How do we get these shocks set right

Cause i just cant get these to feel right at all wasnt happy with the car at all.
Last night i had few guys look at the car they even commented how dead it felt.

I had the following setup

2 piston front standard 40wt
3 piston rear standard 35wt

when you push the car down the movement was in my terms dead.
Tim & Sime know what I'm talking about.

I did have few handling issues with the car, thought it could be the issue down to the shocks.
I'm hoping to get the shock drilled out 1.3 front & 1.4 rear's before the weekend

I'm currently running same setup from Adam for Mansfield apart from the shocks

When on power mid corner the rear end keeps braking away, feels like it's over driving the front or pushing.
I know for start the motor is just to much for the car so I'm going to put 7.5 or 8.5 in it cause just to much 6.5 for my driving now.

Do you think it's just the shocks that's causing the issue.

How do you guys actually build your shocks

This is how I do mine

Fill with oil, use the pump to remove bubbles etc
Leave for 20mins & then place the cap on without the screw in the bleed hole. Push the shock in slowly & then apply the screw.
They feels ok then you put them in the car feels bag of S@!t, I myself never been good building these type of shocks.
Is this the method how all usually do this or am i doing it wrong?
