Alright...I've put new shock oil in my Storm but it just flat out needs a shock rebuild. The caps(bladders I think) wont seal and the shock shafts are somewhat bent. I need to know where ic an buy a shock rebuild and shafts at the same place.

Too bad GS only sales to distributers

That is exactly what you will need. My LHS is a GS distributor. If you need, you can call them and see if they will ship to you. Or you can talk to me about some kind of deal. I'll be going there on Monday.
 
You might also want to try any 1/8th shock bladder. But I'm not shure so look into beforew you buy:mex:

Sky thanx man. That was posted late last night, but I called my LHS today(who can get some GS stuff) and he said he'll try to find what I need. If he can't get it tommorrow when I go by there, I'll damn sure send ya a PM. Thanks!
 
I was able to find a whole storm pro shock kit on ebay for $26. This included all 4 shocks. The pro shocks are a little better than the rtr ones. The biggest difference is that the caps have holes so that they self bleed and dont build up too much pressure inside. Other than that they arent really more durable and the shafts will eventually bend again, I picked up some extra shafts for when that happens ;)
