Gas-charged shock handling
A gas-charged shock holds a pressurized charge, which helps it resist foaming when the damper works hard. That charge is part of what keeps the damping steady over long runs, but it also means the shock should be treated as a pressurized component during removal and installation.
Smooth body shocks are often chosen for their clean profile around the mounting area. Before fitting, confirm the mounting eyes line up with the original points, and check that the piston rod moves freely through its full range without binding against the bump stop.
Replace worn bushings and check the mounting hardware whenever the shock is changed. Look for oil on the body or shaft and listen for knocks over bumps, as these signs suggest the unit is losing damping control. Keep the old unit until the new one has been tested on familiar roads.
