Doubt it. Is Dmax even around anymore?

You have a few options - a company like ShockTherapy can rebuild shocks and tune them - but they are going to have their core competency in stuff like King and Fox Racing. Even if you convince them, they'll charge you an hourly rate and it will end up a $4k rebuild.

The important information on a DMAX is going to be seals and disk part numbers, as well as oil levels. I doubt anyone has a service manual laying around so it's going to come down to pulling them apart, measuring and make some guessing on what is a suitable replacement. I don't know if DMAX used off-the self parts or had all custom spec stuff.


Youtube has videos on how to rebuild coil overs. If yours are shot and basically garbage, what do you have to loose? Pull it apart and give it a whirl. FOA, King, Icon and Fox all sells spare parts (seals, oil, ect). Just have to do some digging once you realize what size/parts you need.
