Damper Test Set 2

I finally got around to updating the second set of shocks from an unknown to a known quantity.

Upon disassembly I noticed a few things that were a little different. Being used items, I had no idea what kind of oil was inside. I only know it was softish.  The rears were setup with a 1mm longer ball end... for more ride height?

The fronts were setup with sponge inside and the rear without. The fronts on the DRB were needing to be a little harder anyway. I guess thats a simple way to handle a small adjustment, but I removed it for testing.
I'm trying to get a feel for subtle shock changes. I'll probably rebuild these again next week.

So anyway. These also had the harder black rubber seal instead of the silicone one.

So Set one is here. http://rextremerc.blogspot.jp/2012/05/yokomo-damper-maintenance.html
