    I had my BAMF shock relocation kit installed with 12" kings by @Deathproofduck The pressure had to be let out of the truck to get everything mocked up. now I can't find anyone in the Medford area to fill them back up lol.

    Anyone local have a setup or know a shop willing to fill them up?

    Shouldn't be any reason to let the pressure out... I dunno who in the area has the ability to charge them. :(

    Only reason I can think of is because there isn't enough droop with the springs but we just compressed the shock by hand and got it in

    Jerry said it wasn't a big deal. there was a slight issue with my all pro u bolt flip kit hitting the resi and destroying it while it was temporarily mounted to the shock itself.

    Motorcycle shops usually have nitrogen with regulators that go high enough
