I mean it seems that the rebound just wont be the same from shock to shock. I found out yesterday that even with brand new rebuilds the shafts just seem to have to much drag on them when moving them up and down in the body with no fluid. I took out the shaft and piston a chucked it up in a drill and took a little off but that only seem to make the slightest difference. After several put together and take aparts, I found that the plastic pieces between the orings bind the shaft some. I'm thinking of drilling out the plastic pieces just a tick so there isn't so much friction on the shaft. What do you guys think or are there any methods or other parts you have used to get your shocks silky smooth? also I should mention I am using the foam compensaters with EU caps. tia
if , you want the shocks to be smooth than use green slime shock grease and just make sure there isnt any binding at all. im really thinking about getting the eu caps for the front shocks on my 1.0 t the rebound doesnt, stay constant on the front end for some reason even though i have enough ride height and preload.
i think its because the arms on the front cant get leveled inless you really want the ride height high.
