[QUOTE="Bebop, post: 762558, member: 5925"] Hmmmm nope. The nitrogen absolutely carries some of the weight. The shock shaft acts exactly like a hydraulic ram. Nitrogen pressure x surface area = force. At 200PSI, a 7/8" OD shaft carries about 120lbs. Since you fill the shocks at 200 PSI at full droop, when you're at ride height, the nitrogen pressure is even higher, thus driving the force from the shaft higher. [/QUOTE]
