Mike,

I have all the sizes of drill pieces you need, always use the a 1mm to set your hole and then use a finger tip drill piece holder to increase the hole to the required size.

I am using the following shock setup on the 210 and it seems to work well on astro regardless of track conditions. I have also found that it lands very well off jumps and seems to settle quickly

Fronts
Pistons = Gurnell 4 Hole @ 1.3mm Tappered
Oil = TD 550
Springs = Dark Red or Yellow

Rear
Pistons = Gurnell 5 Hole @ 1.3mm Tappered
Oil = TD 500
Springs = Light Red

My full setups can be found on the TD website

David
