on my center shock the bushings were always getting pounded out after a couple hundred kms....i took bethevipers recommendations and heres how i fixed it....i ordered 2 bearings 4 seals and 4 washers as well as 2 collars from the rear shock off any srx.....removed old bushings....clean shock end out with brake cleaner....take the bearing and a 5- 10 thou feeler gauge and some bearing retaining compound and press bearing into shock ends....i used a same size socket and extension....try the 5 thou first to see how tight it is.....i used a 7 and a 9 to put mine in...next take a sheetrock knife and cut the ends of the feeler gauge flush with the shock....grease bearing and install seals new collar and washers.....looks like this is gonna last a long time....great tip betheviper
