How did you cut that inlet back and did you worry about shavings getting inside?

[@benhulburt4931]

I actually used my angle grinder as I have become quite good at controlling it over the years. I put the air shock in my vice with the inlet pointing down and directly afterward set my smallest shop vac attachment on it. I have not had any problems to this point!

@@benhulburt4931 Thank you for the response yeah I’m actually probably going to push a small amount of Kleenex in the hole and use an angle grinder to take it off. Hate to have to take the shock off.

So im looking to get air shocks for a 73 nova so i can jack the car up for wider wheels. Does changing the fitting helps with leaks

[@eccentrickustomcollective7808]

I think it does because you go from a plastic piece to a metal.
