Would you mind telling how you made the bleeder tool? Obviously a hose and syringe, but did you have to make the fitting or what did you use for that? Your videos are incredibly helpful and been using them all for my suspension and bearing work. By far the best ones I've seen. Thank you!

thank you i appreciate it.the fitting is made from aluminium with lathe,it is a simple plug with tread and oring for seal

You can do it without the tool he used. Just poor it in the hole and work the shock like he was till you don’t see any air bubbles and keep adding here and there. Then fill it to the top as you put your adjuster back in oil should spill out. Also do not use compressed air like he did cause you can mess up the bladder. Use a hand pump with a gauge and out about 7lbs. Push the shock all the way down and it should slowly extend all the way back. Then you can let the air out and have someone put the nitrogen in.

Should have greased the mounting points prior to assembly back on bike

When you dump the nitro and begin re bleeding with fresh oil how do you guarantee the shock isn't overfilled or under filled? Do you add a few psi prior to installing the adjuster or do you leave it deflated?

Where did you get the soft jaws from

[@lalikjmx]

The soft jaws are made from wood by my friend,who is a carpenter
