| Do I really have to buy new set of Vendetta shocks for a 2 cent part?
So I was building my new Vendetta ST shocks today and got to step 2 where I put the O rings & plastic spacers in the bottom of the shock held in by a hexagon shaped retainer clip/spring. Well as I was trying to put pop in the clip/spring it shot off like a rocket. 45 minutes later I give up looking and went online to find a shock rebuilding kit, but cant find any. Does anyone know if these can be replaced without having to buy new shocks? Appreciate the help. Last edited by jamescam; 02-26-2010 at 09:15 PM. Reason: title wasnt clear |

I had the same thing happen...they're a bi$@h aren't they Someone told me to build the shocks in a clear plastic bag and that trick saved me from losing them again. They should sell 100 packs of those stupid spring clips |

They are definately a pain. I've built more of these shocks than I can count and I still zing one across the room now and then. These clips will be available seperately soon. Send me your shipping address and I will get a couple out to you. Thanks J |
