I had problems with hubs cracking at the ball stud, and have now run them opposite for over a year with no ill affect to the rear end grip, and has stopped the hubs breaking, it does look a little iffy but has been fine, in fact robbiejuk drove it and thought it was ok. worst case is when a ball cup popped off, but that was easily rectified. Might hasten to add they are the plastic one not the alloy ones.

It's a subbtle difference but I don't like the rebound effect you tend to get with bladder shocks (where the shaft comes back out on it's own I feel that's the springs job), and find emulsion shocks much easier to build consistently.
How do i cut the bladders and i have seen the trf emulsion shocks do they work on that principle

just cut the hole in the bladder.
So that it is just an O ring


[Rctech picture ... TLR shock but same principe as trf or associated]

With good piston plates of the best shocks I ever had. And many possibilities to change O rings as they use the 3mm shaft.

Lee you do it just like above, but if your not sure I can show you next time you race, plus also how it's best to bleed them with cut bladders
