Hey MikeR,
Justin is correct... it was Airnate alright! I think you were goofed by the Barracuda sticker on his TC3 lid... (I think he wanted people to think that he was running a Barracuda instead... )... anyhow, here's the aftermath of that 8 feet jump (you won't see the massive ramp on the pic), after which he did a double double with only 3 tires... AMAZING!!!

The reason for the Barracuda decals is Alex hooked him up with the body.

long way to drive to rebuild your car... you might want to think about spending some quality time at Grumpy's after the day is done

Shock questions
When filling the shock body, how far up in the body do you fill??
When inserting the assembled cartridge I see that the piston is up against the cartridge, but how far do you screw the cartridge in as shown in step 4 of the instructions before moving on to step 5
When the shaft is depressed into the body in step 5, I see that its depressed a little more than halfway and there is some bleed off at the oring before moving on th step 6.
Then it looks like you lossen the bleeder screw and depress the shaft almost to the threads..
I just want to be sure im assembling and bleeding them off correctly....My first experience with bleeder type shocks
I'm gonna try to run Saturday night if possible
Thanks loads
