THANK YOU!! Although this is how I typically build my Shocks, *Mostly.......* that tiny bit about the small hole in the Shock Cap...... BRILLIANT!!! I've been in the Hobby for over 37 Years. The one annoying thing about building and Tuning Shocks is - if you get the right amount of Oil, and everything looks good..... But then you test the Shock by pushing up the Shock, and it SPRINGS back down - WITHOUT the Spring installed!!!! SOME People think that's "normal"..... but it certainly is NOT!! That fluid pressure actually INCREASES the Mechanical Spring Rate! Even with the lightest Oil. I CAN'T BELIEVE that I never saw that the pressure from the Shock itself, is CAUSED by AIR PRESSURE, above the Diaphragm, IN the Cap!!! 😱 That simple little hole in the Cap, relieves and levels the Air Pressure, that normally tried to PUSH the Shock Piston back down! I can't WAIT to try this!! 😎😀

PoorManRC it's supposed to push back down have you ever changed the shocks on a real car they push back down there supposed to that's how they work

@northsidecustomrc3097 4 жыл бұрын

Its not the air pushing it back down. The shock shaft and oil need to occupy the same space when shock is compressed thats why the bladder has room in the cap to move. The shaft going into the body and pushes a volume of oil out that expands the bladder into the cap. That pressure is relieved when load on shock is removed and thus the volume of oil from the bladder pushes the shaft back out a bit (rebound) When You've built 4 shocks perfectly they all rebound the same amount.

Just wanted to mention for proper use of the diaphram you are supposed to fill the the upper reservoir with oil as well. If you notice when you compress your shock that it does not return to a fully rebound position. Adding oil on top of the diaphragm will alleviate that problem and allow the damper to act as it should. Cheers and keep the up the good work. I basically run a clone of your scx10.2 and LOVE IT!

that's what I thought because regular automobile shock they are completely extended when you buy them new and if you push them in they jump back to the full extension I thought they were supposed to

@TyTekinCampbell 7 жыл бұрын

The air is supposed to be in there, they are an emulsion shock. Diaphragm will work also, it just depends on how you want the shock to dampen.

Very good video! Amazing can I ask, what is your stiffness of the springs? Front and rear? Also would the cap gasket for the slash work as well for the axial shocks? Very much appreciate it

@stylze5767 Жыл бұрын

Whenever i fill my shocks with oil they hydro lock even if i leave a air cap. And i only half way fill it it defeats the purpose of having oil at all. Did i place the c clips on the shaft wrong? Youre supposed to have the opening of the c clip on opposite sides of eachother right?

Nice, buttery smooth. That's a good, simple mod! OK, I have to ask lol.... I've got 100s of those diaphragm off of Tamiya kits.... Would those work in some brands of performance shocks??

@JPRC 7 жыл бұрын

+Carmine Allocca The hole is for venting air betweeen compression and powerstroke. Having a hole allow a more consistent damping rate while no hole would force air to compress in the bladder chamber therefore it would result in faster rebound which is less desirable in crawling. You can use any bladder diaphragms as long as the fit the diameter but I think the tamiya ones are too big to fit.

@CarmineRC 7 жыл бұрын

JPRC I understand the hole... I'm surprised that manufacturers stopped including the hole. I was able to demonstrate how it works, by filling a shock, assembling, and then when I compressed the shock, but it stopped about 5mm from the top. The bladder had compressed the air in the cap.... The hole relieves that pressure, allowing full, smooth shock travel. 😉 It's really too bad that the Tamiya bladders are too big.... I have so many of them. I also have to find out what size springs will fit on Tamiya shocks. I've got some on my CC-01 and DT-02....
