I hope this explains what has to be done to shocks that were built for another application. There's quite a bit that usually has to be done to them to make them right.

Very cool Andy!! People should also watch the video about taking measurements before sending shocks in for valving, help get away from the generic term of "What weight are the shocks setup for" when buying used.

I'm planning on making a new measurement video in the near future too

Sweet!! I need to make a drive down to drop off a full set of Elkas for service, seals and a set of hi/lo comp knobs.

I need to send my shocks in, but I'm afraid of the price. I get quotes, but they don't sound, for sure. "If we have to replace this of that, it will be more".
