Silentsoul Posted June 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 I had a gt thunder re-valve re-spring and their linkage on my trx450r, it was nice, but I didn't see anywhere on the website where they did anything for a banshee. Will precision concepts do a dual rate set up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiRoller Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Works did a heart transplant on mine (kept the stock spring since I'm 170lbs). I know they get mixed reviews on here but I'm very happy with their service and work. I ride dunes only, mostly fast trails. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
So Cal Suspension Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Works did a heart transplant on mine (kept the stock spring since I'm 170lbs). I know they get mixed reviews on here but I'm very happy with their service and work. I ride dunes only, mostly fast trails. I just got done doing Eric's (Diskoe*1) Rear works. I've been doing shocks for the past 6 years. Started out building custom shocks for Bilstein, then built shocks for Off Road Warehouse in San Diego. I do work out of my house, so I charge much less than those guys. I guarantee my work also. I charge $65 for a rebuild/revalve per shock plus parts. Free shipping back, and I polish shocks before I send them back. Send a PM to Eric and I'm sure he'll vouch for my work. I have done 1000's of rebuilds/revalves on everything from Bicycle Fox shocks, to Bilstein Blackhawks. The before: and... After: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badbar88 Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 Hey Matt, that looks real good. What's the total cost (roughly) of a rebuild for the rear? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
So Cal Suspension Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 Typically a STOCK rear shock is a bit more labor intensive, and parts are a touch more expensive. The rebuild kit is about 50 bucks, and labor on those stock rear is $75. So about $125.00 total, shipped back to your door. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badbar88 Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 Sounds damn good to me. I'm in Fullerton so I may just hit you up over the summer before Glamis season starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another local! 4 of us just went to Dumont for the drags. It was a good time. Quite a few HQers out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badbar88 Posted June 15, 2010 Report Share Posted June 15, 2010 If I didn't have a sliver of hope that Chuck Liddell would win his fight on sat. I would have went too! My buddy, who is friends with a certain shop ( Inland ATV..cough cough) went out and said it was a blast. I would have went for sure if the dune ridin was better, but Dumont at night will make you work your ass off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
