Charging Nitrogen Charged Shock Absorbers

[Mkelcy]

What do you use or where to you go to charge your nitrogen charged shock absorbers that were shipped uncharged? What do you use to change the charge as you're tuning the shocks?

Location is Southern California.

Some outfits who deal with dirtbikes can do that.

There's this option: http://www.pacificcustoms.com/PROTANKKIT.html

Let me know if you buy it, I'll surely need to borrow it :)

Lance: It looks like sand rails often use nitrogen charged shocks. I did some more searching using "sand rail" and found a number of setups - including one that charges two shocks simultaneously. I like that idea. If I get one of the nitrogen charging setups, you surely will be able to borrow it.

Matt: If I decline Lance's invitation to spend $300 or so, the dirt bike shop is also a good thought.

Thanks to you both.

Doing two at once would be a really nice way to balance both sides of the car! Then again you could just go to the welding store buy a tank and Ebay a regulator and make your own pressure lines. A small tank like that is about $100.

Any thoughts on where you'd get the leak proof schrader valve connectors. I think it's probably pretty important to get the connectors off without losing pressure.
