    If you need help rebuilding the shocks you can send them to me. As long as it has the rebuild kit and oil the rebuild will be $100. Just finished rebuilding mine.

    But if you're a DIYer I do not know where to get a manual. But it's the same as any other PDS style shock with the IP Piston. There's one retaining ring that's a pain but other than that it's straight foward.
