Hi,

Can anyone recommend a company that do it.

Re: rear showa shocks re-build
Yes the rear shocks can be rebuilt.The tip is to put the right oil seal. (dimentions:12,5X24X5).The nitrogen tank to be filled with 75 psi nitrogen and the shock conteiner must be filled with 160 ml suspension oil w10.greenhearts54 wrote:Hi,
