I need to go back and loosen up my shock piston. I’m glad you covered that because I’m pretty sure I have mines too tight. Nice video! Thanks!

Can you explain the holes in the wing.

How often do you unscrew the cap screw and release and air pressure over time?

Typically as ambient temperature changes you’ll sometimes need to bleed your shocks. The best way to know is remove the shock from the car, remove the spring, pump up the shock and see if the shock shaft rebounds. If it does, you might need to bleed the shock.
