Refilling Nitrogen Shocks

- Running higher end shocks usually means higher level of maintenance and care. If you have nitrogen filled shocks, you should be checking them every 6-12 months to ensure ride comfort does not diminish!
Seems like a lot of work just to add 20% nitrogen and given that you did not purge the line of air prior to filling might as well just fill with regular air.
hey all you TIG welders out there, you can just use your argon bottle to fill your shocks as well
Pretty cool!
dont forget saftey glasses. One rupture from a supply line can ruin your sight for ever.
Great info!
Yo mo! What’s good man
If you set the pressure at 100 psi and don't check it, it will have 100 psi in it. When you release the pressure in the hose and open the schrader valve it equalizes pressure between the shock and the hose. You can also lose oil every time you bleed off that extra 50 psi.
It was like pulling teeth dam that was. Painful!!
Wondering why no one uses plain air like on a motocross bike?
Question, how do you know which shocks are for the front vs rear with the rrd’s? The only difference I could notice between the two pairs is the bottom mount hole is different. Does it matter which ones go on front vs rear? Thx!
Thanks for continuing to educate on so many aspects of the jeep. Information like this is so useful 👍
Great video man looking at trying to get a set of these for the XJ 🤙
Yup! Gotta maintain your stuff!! You're right about buying your own setup being more cost effective in the long run. You'll pay anywhere from 85-100 bucks an hour on labor. Doing this yourself twice, it will pay for itself. Great vid again!!👍🏻👊🏻
Informative as always. 😎
Aahhhh the joys of jeepin ....maintenance is soo very important.... great video ....just remember the bigger you go the more catastrophic the failure... keep the shinny side up.
Dam make me curious about my shocks since I’m coming up on a year with my lift and shocks even though I don’t wheel anywhere close to how much y’all do. Awesome information and showing how to do it!
Man I think I need to add that set up to my arson of tools. I know I'm going to have rebuildable coil overs on a few of my Jeeps soon.
Great info I have the same shocks for my jk I love them. Adam at rock Krawler told me 80 psi all around that’s what they leave factory with I might go a little more psi now
nice man! to save time couldn't have you done that with them installed on the vehicle? i haven't gone out to look at mine, but they're sealed fox 2.0 anyway.
Where do you get all that equipment and what is it called? What will I be asking for, when I'm looking to purchase my own refill rig? And where do I get my own?
