[QUOTE="escapefjrtist, post: 1317923, member: 238"] Ross - I have the list of parts that I purchased when diving into this rebuilding adventure. Give me a couple days as I'm heading into work now and won't be home until late tonight. The big investment you're going to have is purchasing a small N2 cylinder and gauges, a couple Penske specific tools and the no-loss chuck you mentioned. The process is very simple, so yes, I would say you can tackle a shock easily. We (the PNW gang) have rebuilt six Penske's so far. At $250-$300 each, I'll say our investment of ~$500 has paid for itself three times over already. Purchasing parts from Penske is very, very expensive. I sourced all o-rings through McMaster Carr and bushings through another party. With the miles you have on yours and based on my limited experience, you definitely need a full rebuild, not just oil and shaft seal replacement. --G [/QUOTE]
