List,

I have a pair of rear shocks on the bench which I would like to drain,
flush and re-fill. 

My question is...which fitting is the correct one to use? The big nut, that
would be on the bottom of the shock when fitted on the car, or the little
one (which no standard or metric wrench fits, must be Whitworth!) on the
side near the top and 'neath the cover of the shock?

After checking the archives...I read where Peter warns that the shock must
be laid flat on the bench when bleeding...this leads me to think that the
little fitting is the culprit.

Thanks,


Bill & Cindy
