Rebuilding a coil over shock
I have PFADT coil over shocks on my car and one of my rear shocks is leaking oil, I want to rebuild the shock. Does anyone know what kind of oil these shocks take and how much? Since PFADT is out of business I can't contact them for this information.

Someone on this forum posted some info on a shop (in ca i think) that was able to service/rebuild the phadt c/o's. Try a search or maybe they will chime in. What coilovers are you using? I hope my featherlights dont crap out on me....although i've heard great things about LG coilovers.

My shocks are the featherlight drag shocks and this is the second one I have had do this.
I am wanting to tear it down myself and repair it. I don't know anything about these shock but I figure it is a bad O-ring so why can't I change it out myself?

REsuspension.com,
They can either rebuild yours, or at least a source for seals, shafts, valves if your needs to be replaced, then there is the mater of fluid and recharging the shock if you are doing it yourself.
