    Yeah cause they want you to spend $2000 to replace them. But I have heard they are rebuildable. I’m sure you just need to find the right guy. I forget which thread it was in but I swear @ColoradoTJ Was talking about it the other day.

    If I find that right person I will definitely send them to be rebuilt.

    It might be worth looking into a shop that does motorcycle/dirtbike shock rebuilds. I’ve met a few and they seem to know their shit. I bet if you can come up with the parts and fluid they could make it happen.

    TRD Pro shocks are not rebuildable. They are sealed and capped, all rights are TRD divisions. If the shocks are toast, look into some of the top brands. King/Fox/Icon/Toytec with Radflow/ADS etc...

    Most Bilstein shocks are rebuildable, just not the TRD Pro Shocks. I just got off the phone with Bilstein USA, and told me this exact thing.

    This is kind of the plan I had when my soon to be acquired and installed used pro shocks eventually wear out. I’ll look into something even more awesome when the time comes.
