Air shock question E body - 04/04/17 04:44 PM
Father in law wanted the older look like when he was in high school. Bought brand new air shocks, small air lines with little o rings, and plastic everything. Darn things wont hold air for a full day. Ive used soap and water and cant find a leak. Have any of you guys found a cure or dealt with this issue?
Only thing I can think of to do is fill each shock individually

Did you check the shock air bladder with soapy water? Might have a leak there rather than on the lines and couplings.

I did and did not see anything. I wonder if they are leaking internally and the air could be leaking out the shock tube seals?
I know its a pretty bad leak as they loose all their air over night.

Well, the "little air pixies" didn't come and steal it. There's a leak somewhere. I think you should split the lines anyway to reduce rear-end roll in corners. That'd help you narrow it down to one side or the other.
