Ohlins Refurb shocks/springs - how to? Or companies that do it
Just taken my shocks and springs off and found them to be Jdm Ohlins - (woo!!... I think?) . So begs the questions
How do i go about refurbing them myself? They're obviously not in great shape as they're around 20 years old..
Or are there uk companies that will refurb them and for what cost?
Also what are they worth ?! I can't find anything anywhere..

I'm obviously biased, but, if they can be rebuilt, I'd use my springs and matching internal bump stops.

Not active in a year and same for website/ Facebook so don't think I'll get any response! They don't have to be Ohlins specialists to refurb them do they?

I can't seem to find a contact!
Ideally I'd just be wanting a refurb kit or somthing. Going to try to clean all the dirt/**** off the shock and then maybe (probably) replace the spring.
am i right in assuming the code is SUS7A00 for the front of a GC8?

Japanese spec Ohlins road and track. Haven't done any of them for a while. Quite a lot of the time the inserts are corroded and need re-chroming. How are yours? I think rebuild parts are available.

Also if I get them shot blasted will any of the material ingress into the shock? Trying to get them all shiny any new!

Giving them a call would be my opening gambit.
