Re: Sprint shockers
Have the old units failed? The oil in them can be replaced if it has gone thin. I don't think anything can be done about the seals or valve if they have one.

No, they haven't failed, they just don't have the same absorbance - they could still be cleaned up and used. If I could get a full refurb for them, then I would consider that
