Rebuilding the dampers in the Awesomatix A800R 1/10th touring car!

I will show you my quick and easy process of how I rebuild the dampers in the Awesomatix A800R!

Great stuff Eric!

[@chequeredflagracing]

is that brass part an Awesomatix part you push in to bleed the shock?

[@FullSendRC804]

Yes, it comes in the kit with the car.

How did you pull the plate up? is that a screwdriver? doesn't it damage the plate? mine are stuck

[@FullSendRC804]

It's not a screwdriver, it is a small pointed pick tool. My plates slide pretty easy so it doesn't do any damage to them. I take very fine sandpaper like 1000 to 1500 grit and smooth the edges until they move easier.

@@FullSendRC804 thanks!

[@nunocarrico]

@@FullSendRC804 BTW do you use the pick under the plate or in the oil hole?

[@FullSendRC804]

@@nunocarrico I use the pick in the hole. My plate moves easy enough that I don't really worry about damaging the plate or the hole.
