Rear Shock Rebuild

[wedoo2]

I have an extra pair of rear shocks and am thinking about rebuilding them. Wondering what parts I should order and if there is a good tutorial for the job. I see one seal that is available through the local dealer, 91257-463-013. Many of the parts are not available.

Here's my rear shock rebuild tutorial, with part numbers for seals and springs. There are others if you look under the "Gallery Index & Tech Ref." drop down at the top/left of the forum pages. Scroll down to the "Member Submitted Tech...". :good:

Thanks. I bookmarked that tutorial. Looks like the hardest part for me would be finding something to compress the shocks since I don't have a tool for that. I guess that doing it by hand is too hard.

Over at GoldWing Docs they have a tutorial on rebuilding the shocks, and how to build a tool for replacing the springs. If your just replacing the seals you don't need any special tool. Here is the link https://goldwingdocs.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=27146
