- Part 2 of a very comprehensive dirt bike shock rebuild.
If you have not done this type of work before, this is the video for you! Nothing is skipped, assumed or glossed over. If you want to do the job right, watch!
Great job on the shock looks Amazing now. I was thinking. how are you going to get the shock adjuster on your shock when you built the shock.
Haha. Well I did get that wrong initially, but as the video shows, that mistake was addressed and rectified.
@@brian.d.mobley I know you fixed the mistake in 18 minutes. I was taking my shock apart to clean it today but cant take the shock adjuster off to clean. I will have to strip the shock down to do that. So your video is Amazing on how to strip the shock right down. Thank you for this video. You have save me sending the shock off to be rebuilt.
SO glad it helped! That was an early video and was a little clumsy compared to my newer work. So glad it saved you some trouble!
You can remove the fork-thing on the lower end, its threaded onto the shaft. (Instead of disassembling the thing if you forget something again) 😀
I did not know that! It’s been some time since I made this video, so I dont recall exactly how that component looked, but I didn’t think that part could be removed from the shaft.
how much amount of shock oil did you use.
watching from Philippines
Hey Ralph! That varies depending on the shock you are using. Check what the manufacturer recommends to be sure
Was your Tusk shock seal bullet the 16x12mm one on Rocky Mtn ATV?
This is the one I used: amzn.to/3yeB2DB
Links for parts?
Hello .i 'm rebuilding 08 crf250r rear shock absorber. I made a mistake. I messed up the compression washers. The last 6-7 washers and the stopper came off while removing it. I'm not sure about the marked, last 6-7 washers. Thanks for your help
Hi M Mab. Im not sure if you are asking for help or thanking me for the help the video provided, but I think its the later. Thanks for watching!
@@brian.d.mobley actually both. great video.actually i need help.I'm not finished rebuild rear shock.rebound shims shuffled.bottom row

@@mabmab5713 Im sorry, but I dont have those dimensions and I do not have a disassembled shock to reference right now.
Sir rear suspension of crf 450 can be installed to xr 250r?
Hey Ernesto! Off hand I don’t know. However, look for groups on Facebook for CRF and/or XR owners and pose that question to them.
@@brian.d.mobley how do I find a genuine XR250R rear shock
@@davidandrew3481 I really don’t know. But I’d look for groups on Facebook that are dedicated to that bike and ask the group for help.
Hi
Where can I get the parts from? I can’t find the split oil seal
HI! I got all the parts from Rocky Mountain ATV.
Was it a cr 250 or 500 shock?

What sandpaper grit did you use on the spring
Hi Henry: I used several grits, but ultimately finished with 400. Spring steel is ULTRA hard and the grit becomes somewhat irrelevant. Even aggressive grits wont score the surface very much so just strive for a smooth scuffed surface free from any burrs. Thanks for watching!
@@brian.d.mobley thank you
Hello i have 2 questions how much do you fill the suspension and do you turn the thing to H or S
@@brian.d.mobley yeah but they havent been able to fix it i have a kawwasaki 500cc 2 stroke 2001
staking not necessary from forums consensus. red Loctite and torque to spec
As soon as I don’t stake, a bunch of other people will comment that the service manual recommends staking. It can’t hurt to detent the thread, so I follow the Honda service manual technique
@@brian.d.mobley totally agree. great video, it helped me lots. it kills me to see honda hammer away everything. race tech instructions use no stake fyi
@@carlosbarragan6729 I agree. It seems barbaric. I’ve actually found a new way to do it, but still involves a hammer. I don’t like smashing things with a hammer.
Shock honda cr85 ??
Hey Bruno! This shock was off my 2002 CR250. I may rebuild the CR85 shock soon and if I do, I’ll post it here,
