Love my four wheel truck and seeing some of the prices on the sale thread decided to pick up another. Im going to 100k in center diff remove the front center shaft, diff, axles and just leave the stubs in and make mine a 2 wheel drive truck. Might end up having to lock up the center diff completely. But cant wait to give this a shot. 2 and 4 wheel tekno sc trucks.

Sorry for late reply. Emulsion- I build them by filling shock body with oil, let bubbles rise and get out (your standard step to all shocks), have shaft all the way down, top off with oil till it's at brim, put a lil in shock cap, screw on shock cap, then slowly push shaft all the way upwards pushing excess oil and bubbles out, wipe excess off drain hole, install screw (set screw, button head, flat head with oring....your preference. Bladder vented I build using stock aluminum caps or plastic caps with bleeders holes drilled and top vent hole, fill shock body, let bubbles rise and get out, push shaft up till it's about 5mm or so below bottom cartridge guide, install cap (with bladder already in cap) by turning till oil starts coming out of bleeder holes, continue turning 1/8 or so at a time letting oil continue to flow out, I keep doing this slowly till I can start to feel the bladder start to touch and oil stops coming out. Hand tighten then give it a lil snug with ape shock tool, done. Hope I explained well.....on a side note a lil trick I learned when filling up shock is to have piston half way up, fill shock till it gets close to top, then tip the shock so the air under the shock goes to high side then slowly pull shaft down and you will see the air come out of high side, by the time you get to bottome you will find there are few bubbles, pull shock up and down in small amount of oil inside making sure you don't go higher then the oil. Let sit for a sec and the bubbles will rise quicker because there is less distance for them to travel, then top off with rest of oil. This process can save you a 5 min waiting period of having shock oil raise to the top taking forever. I've always had good luck with this method and can put on my caps immediately after because no bubbles are present........ok rambling done ;)

I've heard of using silly putty in the diff to lock it up
