Your shocks rely on nitrogen pressure to control dampening, prevent fade, and keep your suspension tight and responsive. When that pressure drops, even slightly, you’ll feel it immediately in how your vehicle handles. At T2 Shock Garage, we provide precise nitrogen recharges to restore your shock’s performance and keep your suspension operating the way it should. If your ride suddenly feels soft, claps on compression, or fades during long desert runs, your nitrogen level is probably off.

If you’re feeling any of the following, it’s time:

• Suspension feels mushy or soft

• Shock makes “clapping” or “popping” sounds

• Your ride height feels inconsistent

• You lose stability in whoops

• Your shocks fade quickly when they heat up

• You recently rebuilt your shocks but skipped the recharge

• You run dunes or wash trails in the Coachella Valley (heat = pressure loss over time)

Nitrogen slowly bleeds out with use. It’s normal but ignoring it hurts performance.

For desert riders, especially here in the Coachella Valley:

• Every 6–12 months, depending on use
• After a rebuild
• Any time you notice performance drop or leaks
• After long dune seasons (heat kills consistency)

If you ride hard, recharge often. If you ride casually, once a year is solid maintenance.
