i was wondering if any body would know if the yokomo shock caps w/bleed screws(part# yys8y) would fit associated shocks for the ntc3.i heard something about these caps making it easier to bleed out the air for a more consistant performance.are these the ones that thier talking about or is it another item please let me know if you do, thanks

I havent got mine yet, but lots of people have them on their AE shocks, so yes they fit.

On a loosely related side note, Associated is coming out with their own bladder caps soon. No bleed screw, but they'd work just as well and would almost certainly be cheaper. Yokomo also sells a set of bladder cap shocks that will also fit AE shocks.

Magazines are a bad source of info for new products, if you're reading about it in this month's issue then it's info that's at least a month or two old. One of the team drivers mentioned it to me, didn't ask about a release date.

You could drill a hole in the stock shock caps and put a screw in it. Just a thought. I've been doing that since they came out with the plastic caps.

The guy that we were paying for server space decided to quit paying his bills. One day My web site, Crescenzi racing, rcbearings, the GT forum and everything else he was hosting just disappeared.

At any rate It's at the link below, I haven't done any updates for a long time, and lost the 1/8th and truggy stuff, most of my computer time recently has been going into recovering information that was on the GT forum.
