Works Performance Shock Rebuild
« on: December 12, 2009, 11:08:48 pm »
Found a topic a week or so ago with a link to a Dirt Bike article describing how to rebuild standard Works Performance Shocks (posted by Firko) now I can not find it again :(. Looks reasonably straight forward (famous last words :o). Any who :D the article does not indicate the shock oil weight but does say to use Works Oil. I can not find anywhere to buy it in Oz so am considering using Belray. Any recommendations?

Any suggestions on oil weight? I want to return the shocks to as close as possible to original. I was going to use 5wt which I believe is standard for Works Performance. Can anyone help?

Don't really want to send them away for rebuild as I have been quoted $300 plus postage at two shops. If it comes to that I would rather put that money towards new YSS.

The shocks are for a Monty VB360 so they get worked pretty hard.

5wt would be the best to use, thinner oils don't fade as much and i'd recommend proper shock oil over fork oil.
