The bladders have rips on the side not in the middle. The shock shafts definitely don't hit the middle of the bladder. There are NO rips in the middle of the bladder. I think the air pressure builds up and rips only the side. This happened four times and it costs me to keep buying these bladders.

So I want to use Emulsion shocks going forward. Can I build emulsion shocks with .3 caps or do I need to purchase .4 caps?

Thanks,
To build emulsion shocks, you'll need either the new .4 (aluminum) caps or you can use the plastic caps from the SCT. You'll need to get the appropriate o-ring seals for each.
