do shocks have fluid in them? (stock)

 

I think most if not all shocks have fluid in them. Many aftermarket shocks are gas charged, which keeps a high pressure inside the shock. This high pressure helps to keep the fluid inside from foaming and possibly boiling (low pressure = low boiling point, if you get too high in a hot air balloon or something your blood will boil).

 

yes...some have kool aid and some have sunny delight.

All shocks have fluid (oil) in them. The difference is in the tube design and gas pressure.

There's bi-tube and mono-tube. Bi-tubes have low pressure gas, usually nitrogen, and mono-tubes are high pressure gas filled.

 

thought I should add...

you can't refill them by yourself

 

 

 

my shocks aren't bi.
