Thats always an option too. Its not like its a load bearing part and should be repairable. Once again it comes down to finding someone who is capable to do the work
You are right as always Simmo. Terry Hays at Shock Treatment is who I emailed. We'll see what he says. Also agree with 160hrs it needs a service. As for the revalve what do I ask for? I have no real info to say the shock does this, doesn't do that.
