For mock-up with old gas charged shocks, drill a hole if they are already junk and let the gas pressure out.

As far as compressing the old gas filled shocks, I will use the tongue of the hitch as leverage to compress them down fer the current test setup. I will eventually go to air filled shocks so I can easily compress them, mount the one end, and then fill them to the proper pre-load.
I don't want to loose the pre-load of the old gas shocks fer my testing just yet. I have to see how viable this setup will be before I move on to air shocks.
