I'm about 4 rides in after following your instructions above. Didn't change
any seals, just removed the air can and re-greased the hell out of everything.
Hard to believe the only place I could find Slickoleum in Edmonton was MEC
(lots of high end shops here). I wonder if adding a all that (extra?) grease
decreases the air can volume significantly enough to effect the spring curve?
The shock seems to be holding air just fine now. I guess I can save that $30
seal kit I bought for when an actual servicing is needed. Thanks again for the
write-up. Saved me sending the shock in and being without it for a week or
two.
Idea for your next article: How to service an Avalanche Downhill Racing
cartridge and shim stack configurations. I realize this may be beyond the
average weekend warrior.
Thanks,
Kurt
