I have a an hif carb and noticed while topping up the dashpot oil that the damper rod swivels around on the cap but is not loose. I read on one site new SU plastic capped dampers have a ball socket in the cap which allows the rod to be self aligning. Is that right?

Just curious. :roll:

I'm not SU expert but I would say it's completely fine unless it has up and down movement.

thanks!

Guess thats why it has a bigger bulge on the cap rather than low profile flat one.?! To allow for some ball fitting type deal.
