Hello Paul,
With regards to the bleeding process; Yes, you need to bleed the shocks prior to installing them. To do this, you merely place the bottom of the shock on a bench top (or other stable surface) and then push the top of the shock downward until it will travel no further. Then, pull it back up until it is fully extended. Do this five of six times. As you do this you will notice that the shock will indeed begin to glide more smoothly and will have a nice even-feeling pressure throughout the entirety of its' travel.

Happy Motoring!
Scot
