WP Shock Servicing

[@93Martin]

It's definitely time to make this video again. At any rate, it was super helpful. I just ordered a couple bits from you so I can service my own shock for the first time. So exciting!

[@gophop]

Would be nice to see an updated video with the latest version of the bleeder. As well as in HD.

Happy customer checking back in! it has been doing an excellent job servicing me and my friends shocks. Seems to also be holding up well to our use.

[@myronstambaugh761]

Very good and simple explanation.

[@markusr.2290]

super information. a pity the cam is shaking too much. but anyway thank you for that good lesson.

[@elvisisalive2716]

how can you add air to the reservoir on those older units? Say you don't have nitrogen handy?

[@AnneMarieSchaftenaar]

Te doen voor het niet meer in een beetje op tijd te doen voor te bereiden en te horen dat je wel een keer

Hello, excuse me, empty cans in the film, what pot? Where can I buy, thank you

[@Bryan-Hensley]

I'm a chemist. I don't know much about shocks but I do know chemistry. Pulling vacuum on oil is a big no no. You aren't pulling the air out, You are boiling off a certain chemical. This is one way we can separate chemicals. This is why oil isn't allowed to be flown in unpressured aircraft. If the oil was designed to boil off chemicals it would probably be ok. This oil would have to be for vacuum use only. Otherwise people pulling vacuum will have a different chemical mixture vs not pulling vacuum.

[@MrTL3wis]

You're definitely correct, but this is the way the manufacturers have decided for us to build dampers. When we pull the vacuum, we're boiling off the more volatile components of the oil, but this is the way which seems to introduce the least amount of air in a build.

[@93Martin]

I agree that in theory you would boil off the volatiles in the oil, but we're not pulling a heavy vacuum here, and we're not doing it long enough to see any significant change in the oil's properties. If its good enough for the OEM and the aftermarket, its good enough for me

[@omamxc931]

how did you make this great vid

[@chrislaw4546]

Did you build this yourself ??

[@jerryjohnson5433]

Do you sell theshock bleeder?

[@giorgiopiersanti1883]

Hi, is there a one way valve on the small tube that is not absorbed in the oil? (the tube for the vacuum) thanks

[@bradspaugh9827]

there are multiple check valves in the system. Not for the vacuum pump.

[@bradspaugh9827]

In the machine!
