So I picked up a set of 4 shocks cheap from eBay they look pretty new and the chap I got them off said they only covered 100+miles.
Anyway went to put the rear ones on today and the new shocks don't seem to want to extend and they're really stiff compared to the ones I took off.
I cracked on and fitted them but they will not budge at all it's strange!
Am i missing something? Could they be knackered? Or even wrong ones? Or even wrong height!? I dunno apparently they are standard height from what the chap said?
Cheers
They should slowly extend on their own when released from compression. Their resting state when disconnected is fully extended

Managed to check an ES1000 I have here and pro-comp are right, they do not move from where they are left. So you learn something new every day
