I am going to try this out tomorrow, and report back of what happened. It's Christmas, and everything is closed for a while. So better try this out, before buying new ones. Thanks for the idea and a good video. I think mine are 80 Nm from new. Kind regards.
Awesome solution. We need more of these type of solutions rather than being such a disposable society. I'll give it a try. Had to replace my spider arm and worried about the shocks. After seeing a ton of bad reviews on new shocks I was trying to figure out how you test them. You not only provided a good solution to fix, but also better info on how much resistance they should have, and the the great advice about ensuring all are within a similar tolerance to each other. Thank you Sir!
You sir are an absolute legend! Thank you. This will save me the hassle of waiting for shocks to drive and paying for them.

Don't use regular grease on these, you'll ruin them. Use Dampening grease, very different grease. Nyogel 767a synthetic DAMPENING grease.
