If nothing else, I'm glad I watched this just for the snap blade trick. This is going to help my friend and I rebuild his shock this weekend.

At the 8:08 part, you clearly show the parts that came out of my shock and ruined the shock. Someone had rebuilt my shock and ground it down too much. Glad I ran into this video because I wasn't sure exactly where all the extra washers, orifice, spring and two pieces of something else were.

Masterful skills Dawid! Re-assembly would confuse me but, you are methodical & patient.Someone once said that there are more parts to a shock absorber than there are in a typical 2-stroke engine. Now I believe it's true! Good job & thanks for sharing.👍

Thanks! :) There is a lot of parts indeed. I think it is important to make it slow and think twice before using too much force. It is easy to damage or break something. In instruction there is written "do not disassembly" under rebound/compression adjuster and replace if needed. Ofcourse new parts are out of stock :D In my case rebound adjuster was leaking oil and it is main reason for this rebuild. It looks like next time I can try to disassembly and assembly engine :D Cheers!

Excellent skills. Using blades to separate components is sheer brilliance as is using a feeler gauge to slide under the rubber band. You have taught me something new. Looking forward to part II.

How much of this is necessary for a simple shock rebuild??

Dzięki już większość zrobiona, niestety przy nakrętce mi urwało czopa i musiałem dać tokarzowi pracę, zrobił mi nakrętkę z dziurą XD

Highly skilled mechanic

I can't get the C clip out at all. I noticed you pounded on the oil seal with a rod and a hammer. Is that to release the pressure on the clip?

I really want to see an xr400 vs dr350 drag race
