[QUOTE="Spud, post: 1189926, member: 17601"] Thanks all for the help. Using that first link I got part "A" done and didn't even crack open my service manual. Hopefully part "B" will be equally successful. New (to me) Gen III shock with under 1500 miles on it going in next weekend.

Here it is with no cleanup whatsoever (w/spacer): [IMG]https://i592.photobucket.com/albums/tt2/spudboy_2009/20141101_153129_zpsf6ccb225.jpg[/IMG] All in all the parts under there look remarkably good. Will clean out and re-grease bearings this week and get the new one installed. [/QUOTE]
