89 bansheedude Posted November 23, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 i tryed adjusting the rebound on it and the adjuster nob or screw what ever you want to call it on the bottom of the shock[back], all it will do is spin, no clicks or anything. what does this mean? i need a new rear shock???? thanks, jayare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tats4life Posted November 23, 2003 Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 Might be blown, if it turns and never stops.....cw or ccw.......its time for a rebuild. You can get your shock rebuilt at your stealership for around 300 including a race tech valve and eibach spring. Call your local stealership and see if any of there mechanics are race tech certified???? I got a rear shock off a 00 shee that was rebuilt by tcs set up for 160-180lb rider, I'll sell it for $100 shipped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedster07 Posted November 23, 2003 Report Share Posted November 23, 2003 There is also a factor of how much he weighs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallrat Posted November 25, 2003 Report Share Posted November 25, 2003 Sounds like you have no rebound dampening. Without the dampening you essentially just have a pogo-stick. Time for a rebuild or a new shock. You can usually find a semi-new (+2000) stock shock on ebay for pretty cheap - I'm not sure how much a rebuild is. I'm surprised that it only bothers you when you jump. When the rear shock went out on my last quad, any major size rut would launch your ass 4 feet off the seat. Stupidly I kept it that way for months, eventually it nearly bounced me over the bars when I was flying down a trail. After that scare, I would've paid any price for a new shock.
