Reply to "Front Suspension Adjustment / I need some help!!"

This site is really helpful. Here is what I have determined and will probably go forward.
1. Decrease Air pressure in the ratios suggested.
2. Check the door seals etc. Tighten any loose bolts etc.
3. Change out the shocks? This is sugggested from the following archived item from JPS Motors from the old message board. It reads as follows:

OK, the big secret to making the front of a Speedster handle and not plow and still give you a great ride is "Use the cheapest softest shock you can buy, the Cofap or similar cheap off brand shock but before you install them bleed them in the upright position at least five to six times, this is done by holding the end down and extending the shock the full length and compressing them back down completely five to six times as you do this you will feel the shock start to move evenly through the stroke." The shocks will not bleed out on the car by themselves and will bind up in one position if not completely bled.

I have only one question regarding bleeding of new shocks. Does the new shock bleeding process take place before installation? What tools or process is needed to complete this bleeding process. Any further clarification would be appreciated.
