Oops! Turns out drinking and driving doesn't mix. Who woulda thought...

 

[Mrgoodwrench35]

Time for new shiny parts!!

 

[Doom!]

Careful drinking and wrenching can be just as dangerous!

 

[Mrgoodwrench35]

The new caps came with o rings. Am I supposed to ditch the factory bladder seal for the o rings? I assume so as it has a bleeder in the cap. I guess I could google it but I figured someone would get a laugh out of my stupidity.

That's the bladder I'm referencing

Yes. Those caps are emulsion caps. They don't use bladders.

Follow these instructions. This is basically how I do these types of shocks.

I've never seen emulsion caps and bladders used at the same time... until recently on Tekno's newest eBuggy:

Tekno must have been doing it since 2021, 'cause my ET48 2.0 has that bleeder cap/bladder shock package as well. My truggy is still in box though .

Littlemotor said it's to give ya tuning options. You can run the bladder, or run them as emulsion shocks.

Just a little Pappy Van Winkle. A gift from a friend when we bought our current home.

There is old log style fencing around the acreage and I had been going under it (sledge just barely clears) to mess with my dog who was chasing me the whole time. I may have been a little too hard on the throttle and pulled a tiny wheelie as I was going under the fence. Oops.

Rainy day in the basement….tried out the ramp I got for Xmas, abbey needs to get in the middle of everything. I almost thought about jumping over her broke a upper shock cap, going to put back on stock shocks…

Have you not been playing lately? Or just not breaking anything? Try drinking and driving (rc's of course) seems to work for me.
