Shock bleed port

[Pavetim]

Anybody know the size and threads for a 2018 mxr shock bleed port?

 

[Philip]

I do. Maybe M10x1mm... I need to confirm.

 

[Philip]

Yes, it is.

You can buy an M10x1.0mm to 1/8" NPT adapter at McMaster.com. Or there is also a website that sells shock breeders, do not remember their name, they sell KTM and other adapters as well.

I used a vacuum brake bleeder tool hand pump to bleed the shock on my MX after a revalve. Worked for me as well as a $2K+ WP shock bleeder.

Don't tell anyone, but I was able to screw in a 1/8" NTP to hose nipple adapter into it directly with some Teflon tape. It sealed well enough to be bled one time. But I bought a proper adapter for it for the next time.
