OK, so I've got fox 2.0's on my YJ. This is the first rig I've put rebuildable type shocks on.

The fronts were used but suppossedly rebuilt and had a full nitro charge when installed, the rears I bought new and had charged at the local bike shop.

Now the problem,

The fronts have lost their charge, and there's air in the shock body. If you tip the shock end to end it makes a sloshing sound. I found this when I pulled the fronts to figure out which uniball I waisted. :mad3:

On the rears, I lost a upper bolt on the trail (teaches me for reuse locknuts) and the right rear shock swung down and tore the lower mount off the axle, it now has no gas pressure but I could have bent the shaft or tatered the seals.

The question,

Who is the best shop to get rebuild parts/tools from. I've seen the alum. blocks for holding the bodies, and the spanner wrenches to pull the caps. And when I search Google I can't find sites listing parts, and I figured places like Kartek and other large warehouse sites would be overpriced.

So I got off my lazy ass and called a few shops! :eek:

I found Kartek was acually the most noledgable(sp) and pretty cheap to boot. I ordered 4 rebuild kits, a gallon of oil, and the soft jaws for clamping them in the vise.

Later that night I took the fronts apart. It looks like both fronts started leaking at the piston in the resevior.:confused: Seems odd they would both have the same problem.

As far as the rear, only one has a problem. The right shock has no pressure, I think it may have a leak at the shraeder valve. I'll repressurize it and check for leaks.
