Thats what I´m talking about...

Suspension Shock Pump Topic

@colt-bear: Can you tell me the overall lenght? I´m planning to pump a 1.3L chamber, but, as you can see at the link above, everybody says, that filling a 1.3L with a shock pump is almost impossible...
And a 400psi pump, is awesome... I just found 160psi track pumps ;/

Tell me your thoughts and opinions x)

neeewwww: just make a stirrup pump if you want to fill a chamber that large http://www.spudfiles.com/forums/easy-st ... 13277.html
i built this same one yesterday its not that difficult you apperently don't know how hard a shock is to pump to and at 400psi its not worth it

colty-bear: well colty i have used that exact one to 400psi you screw it all the way onto the schrader if you don't it won't be completely sealed that pump is built for schrader valves so it should work for one

EDIT: damn it jack you always seem to find a way to sneak in while i'm posting have the same idea and then link to it before i get done posting

I built a similar pump (16mm I.D.) but I still find it to take a while to get my gun to pressure, so I'll use a track pump mainly (260 psi) then use the homemade one to 400.

Depending on how large you make it you may find it could still take a while.

i made the one in the tutorial and it can fill about 70% as fast as you average track pump and is very easy to pump at 300psi and below so i just use it for the whole process
