Anybody ever use JIC gas filled coilovers?

Picked up a set of old school JIC coilovers for cheap. They have fat shafts and on the top of each is a kind of inverted air valve. They still have compressed air in them. I'm trying to figure out what kind of adapter I need so I can adjust them. Pics up later.

Please post a pic. I have a set of old JIC too, they are not adjustable. They were blown when I got them. I would like to see what yours look like

It's kind of a like an inverted schrader valve on a car wheel. There's one on the top of each shaft. If you push on the pin compressed air comes out. Hopefully I can find an adapter to screw onto that with a standard schrader valve on top that I can check pressure and fill with.
