Post by longboardnj »

All the newer style shocks from AE use the same rebuild kit that is still offered. As long as they are the top load shock. The older gold shocks you may have trouble with if you have to replace the c clip or the bottom disk, so be careful with those when disassembling.. The o-rings are all the same though.

The Durarax shocks are good enough to use, if you want a cheaper option. As far as if they are the correct lengths I am not totally sure. The rears will probably be OK with some internal stroke limiting spacers, but the fronts you will need to get a measurement.
