Last local guy who did this stuff I guess closed up shop, I've considered doing it for people, but don't have a lot of time lately. Are these shocks, or struts that need rebuilding ?
Are you afraid of doing it yourself ?

These are the rear dampers for an Evo IX...but I run them on my 240 because I use the z32 knuckle. I'm not afraid of doing it myself, but would defer to an expert to have the confidence of the job being done right. I do not drift but I do auto x,which is how I killed the damper. I'm fairly certain that the spring that I run contributed to the death of the shock. Regardless, I sure do appreciate the feed back.

Probably be about 2-3 weeks before I could rebuild them for you if you wanted that, though the hardest part of rebuilding them yourself would be tapping a hole to install a Schrader, also I highly doubt they blew because of the use, either running them way too low, or other damage likely caused it, they're pretty tough to blow from something else. Let me know if you decide to do it yourself and i'll help you out with what you need to know.

Thanks sir. I'll pm you soon. i run them with Megan lowering spring which I think are rather soft for the rear and not overly low. Im sure there is a stroke issue considering they are spec's for an Evo. They were great but now with one I blown the car is error loose especially over bumps and omg in the rain.
