Gatekeeper Builders Kit Shock Caps

[gokartjon]

What is the size cap needed for the shocks on the builders kit?

Looking to upgrade shock caps.

Thanks. But I am wondering size. If I went to amain would it be the 12mm caps?

No, you type "element enduro shock caps" into Google and will give you many options. You can't just cram whatever that might be the right diameter on there because all shock caps are not the same.

I understand this as well. I have no intentions of "cramming" a random cap onto a shock and perfectly understand diameters and threads. But when i am looking on amain for team associated shocks there is an option for jconcepts 12mm with bleeder. But nowhere does it say they are compatible with the stock shocks. I look at details on the stock shocks and nowhere does it state size.
I could also measure the shocks, but i am not sure what the 12mm refers to. OD, ID, piston size... Not sure.

Associated made standard shocks, big bores, and a few others along the way - it does get hairy. 12mm refers to the OD - you want the 12mm caps. Somewhere here someone replaced them with B6 Bleeder caps IIRC.

Not sure of the size, but I installed these on two of my Gatekeeper kit shocks on my recent builds.

Yeah, that was me! If I remember right, the B6 bleeder caps and studs are obsolete and hard to find now. Though, my memory may be a little fuzzy.
