Default darrylkmc Those are the shocks

Hi darrylkmc I just saw your last massage.Those are the shock that I have. To bad you didn't show the O-rings that were in the cover mine only had 1 O-ring and was not even good enough to tell what they look like. Do you happen to what size they are or have a good picture. Richard.

Richard/Ca,

I am out of town at the moment so I am unable to put my hands on one of those shocks. However I will look through the photos that I have and try and recall where that third 'O' ring goes.

There is one large thin one that goes between the cover and the locking ring and a small fat one the goes around the shaft at the cover. I will try and figure out more for you, I need to refresh my memory for a bit.

Richard/Ca,

In these two photos, there is the third 'O' ring shown next to the needle valve. This seal goes above the threads and below the head. You will notice the groove area, which is a bit brighter in the photo.

Hope this helps

Yep I see it. I don't think mine have the correct O-ring on the shaft. Because thats where they were leaking. They both had no O-rings between the cover and lock ring but did not leak there. Richard

Richard, Is the lock ring separate from the cover? How did you remove the cover? Ron
