Default Help with Magnetic Selective Ride shocks

Hi all. I'm new to the forum and relative new to Corvettes. Have an '03 Coupe with 38,000 miles. 2 of my Magnetic Selective shocks have expired. Are these rebuildable, and if so, who can rebuild?
Thanks for any help.

I don't think they are rebuildable and cost about $400 each to replace

I've done some searching on a few forums and can't find a single thread that indicates they are rebuildable. I have an '03 with the F55 and am interested for future reference.

What I did find was they are VERY expensive and most guys remove the computer from the aft compartment and have the code deleted thereby rendering the system inop. Then they replace with a regular aftermarket or stock replacement shock for the cost of 1 magnetic shock.
