Well that was one of the most irritating things i have ever done. Pulling the shock apart, cleaning the gunk out, and getting the new parts installed was easy, getting the dang thing bled properly was a PITA. You have to basically overfill the shock and bleed it using the piston side of the shock to force air out of the valve and trying to hold a oily shock while pumping a piston while the whole mess was sitting in a tray so i don't get oil all over my bench was, whew. But i persevered and got it done eventually, then i had to find someone that has a nitrogen compressor, which is again not as easy as it sounds. No one from here to corona CA (170 mi) has one and i can't ride it with less than 225 psi in the shock. I also needed to find someone with a spring compressor as the automotive type i have is too big to fit the spring on my shock. I wish i had pictures of the rebuild process but trying to do all that and hold a camera wasn't happening, once i get a actual shop i might try it again but right now i'm over it.
