Thank you Kelly for a nicely done video. I really like the spring compressor idea.

Kelly, any pearls when it comes to reassembly other than "do everything in reverse order"? Especially with the pin that you had to drive out. Are they available in a standard hardware store. I imagine reusing the pin once driven out is a no-no.

Matt, I have re-used the pins before, as long as they are still a tight fit back into the top shock mount. It should take a little tapping back in with a small (and I do mean small) hammer.

Thanks DR. I have a pile of OEM shocks I'm going to start digging into this spring in hopes of getting them back into service for anyone who needs them.
