22 Shock rebuild

[jimbo_468]

Hi All,

I have a TLR22 and I want to rebuild the shocks as I haven't done this since I brought the car second hand.

I've been informed that the shock caps can be changed with plastic items (from the RTR version?) so that it has bleeder screws. Is this a one for one swap so to speak?

I also want to change the springs - now when I look at the springs and measure (whilst on the buggy) do I measure the width of the spring to get the size? it seems like they are about 16mm. Is this the standard size, as a lot of springs are either 12mm or 16mm. If my springs are the 16mm, will this effect my ability to change the shock caps or are they all the same size.

Any help is much appreciated.

Jim.
