This is pretty cool but I was wondering is tlt shocks the only shocks you can use, or could you use any other shocks.

OK newbie. Who cares what you think. Do it yourself if you need to see a gauge. | |

Do you think that TLT shocks that have been turned down would still have enough meat to thread the barbs into? They would look even better machined down looking like airshox.

I don't know if it could hold 150 psi or not. At first I thought it sounded like a huge number as well. But I'm thinking its probably right. if you think, pounds over inches squared. The inches squares is getting very small in this application. Therefore the required pounds can be much smaller. I'm too lazy to get into any kind of math but just something to consider.

well those same connections he is using are used to do airlines in automotive applications, i have no problem seeing 150 in those lines.

Again, he has nothing to prove too you. If you would like to see results then do it yourself. This is an example of someone stepping out of the box and doing something different. | |

when the buggy articulates, do all the other shocks get harder or does it have a one way valve in all the shocks?

I would think that it would raise the pressure in the entire system slightly, thereby making the other three firmer. That is why I would actually run the front and rear shocks on seperate systems. That way, one shock compressing wouldn't effect all the others - only the opposing shock on that axle. Last edited by Mad Scientist; 09-12-2006 at 10:01 PM. | |

I'm sure I'll catch hell for this, but here goes. In a closed system pressure is constant. Nothing changes on the other shocks when one or all are compressed. If it's 150 at the front, it's 150 at the back, simple. There is no where for the air to flow to where it will be at lower pressure. Just my .02
