I've just discovered my front shocks leak profusely around the arm seals. Does anyone rebuild these things? Hardly seems like they should be a throw away part.
Thanks,
Walt

Hey Walt do a search for Rebuilt shocks and you will find 10 or more threads.When i decided to have mine rebuilt,1 was so rusted it was not savable.Chevy B may be able to help you with replacement if needed,chef- chevy

There are several places that rebuild them.Runs just short of $400 a pair + shipping.If your lucky you can find new ones for less.
