Hi there peeps

What I'm looking for is some help in Identifying parts - one is from my Scott Octane FX2 and thats the rear shocker - now this should have a resevoir attached (via the brass fitting) but that has gone west soo :shock:

A) Can anyone identify it?

and

B) if I can't find a resevoir for it can i use a solid bolt in place of the brass hose fitting and run a slightly heavier grade of shocker oil?

The other bit I'm trying to identify so I can service them is this set of anonymous fairly beefy forks

Yes they are worn but if I can identify them then I can service them and get them going they should do me fine


Thanks in advance..

    I am pretty stumped! Doesn't look like original kit at all.
