Is there any places besides dealer to purchase the tools and valves ect for rebuilding shocks in canada?
 
I'll try shocktec.

I looked at carver but was hoping to find a place in canada to save the border hassel:-)
 
If you're talking fox shocksACT and some of the more obscure US made..... all the seals and o rings are available at any decently stocked hydraulic shop at a WAY WAY reduced price, or on line through several of the industrial supply or hydraulic supply catalogues, good shock oil is problem?, tools go to hiperf.com.......don't know shipping cost to canada, but for the few tools:

Need:

nitogen fill tool/needle and gauge......get model with cheap needle replacment available
nigtrogen tank at local welding supply.....get smallest bottle possible
some dental pics to get seals and o rings out
shock body aluminum clamping blocks
flat blade screwdriver with v notch in face and edges rounded to put seals in
assorment of small allen wrenches
1/2, 9/16, 1" open end wrench
find free cat service manuel donwload for any of the last 5 years and print out the shock rebuilt pages.
take a shock apart and go through the routine
they are brutally simple

Whole lot of other shock tools being hawked, yes they are handy if you are doing lots of shocks, but to do yours and a few friends every year or so, don't take much.
 
shock teck
nice guy that Frank easy to deal with and super friendly IMHO
