i got a set of 2010 street glide shocks that i put on my 97 electra glide and there is like no rebound,it is springing back to the top like there is no oil in them.how much oil should be in them and how would i check .do i tip them upside down to drain and than refill?any help will be much appreciated since i paid $100 bucks for these,i hope they are not junk!i also tried different pressures in them also.

 

Just so you know what you are working with.....Stock "air" shocks are not a true air suspension. When you add air you are adding air to the oil damping which essentially locks the shock up. This gives you more support for added weight so you don't bottom out, but doesn't allow for wheel travel. Internally it's still a spring shock too meaning you don't get a smooth ride. Oil will eventually leak out and the shocks are designed to carry 180-200lbs and to last about 10,000 miles. if you really want a quality ride I suggest air suspension. I use Legend Air Suspensions. They are the only true suspension on the market, engineered to fit each model and have a lifetime warranty.
