SANDSTAR Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 The shock will not be able to control it's rebound and compression with a blown seal. Why do you think they put valves and seals in shocks, jackass. But I'm sure you got a better explanation than me 'cause you run ELKA shock covers.

Blue Duece Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 dude you havent seen a skock shaft pit from running a cover, thats why you run covers so they wont, leading to a blown seal, the shaft seal is to keep dirt out ........and you havnt seen a a-arm bend from a blown shaft seal.......thats just ridiculous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fixitrod Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Wow, this is crazy. Anyway, I have heard from somewhere else that the coating can get rub marks on it... oh boy. Rub marks on my springs that are covered... what will people think? I'd rather that grit and sand get stopped at the cover rather than at the shaft. The shaft can and will get pitted if not taken care of. As far as the shaft getting bent from being low, this doesn't make sense to me. I'm not saying you're wrong, but if it were low from leaking wouldn't that mean less force on the shaft? I could see bending an a-arm from bottoming out, but if he didn't notice it was riding bad before than.... man. I think the seal went from bending the shaft. That's my opinion. As far as whose bikes better, how can you, Sandstar, ridicule blueduece for have "all the useless shit from AutoZone" and "curb feelers" but turn around and say your quad looks so much nicer. Personally, it doesn't matter to me. I like to see a quad that operates well. I started with chrome pipes and decided chrome isn't for me. I ride too hard and get to dirty for it to matter. As far as whether to buy good shock covers.... I say go for it if you want to save your shock. There are no wonder seals or un-destructible shaft material. The operation of the shocks is more important to me than the rub marks..... If they ever start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SANDSTAR Posted December 13, 2003 Report Share Posted December 13, 2003 Right on, Blue Duce. Any Shee is allright by me. I just thought some of these posts were getting kind of tame. I just read this entire thread again, and I laughed my ass off! Check my bike out in the all black shee thread in Images and tell me what ya think. Still trying to get that pic post thing down!
