Most likely. Does it have any damping anymore? Like when you push down on it, does it rebound way to fast, or feel like it wants to bottom out all the time???

Buying used shocks is risky! Ask yourself why the previous owner wanted to get rid of them...............

well i havent been able to take any jumps to no if it bottoms easy yet. ill have to wate till summer to find that out. but i took the spring off and i pushed down and on the shock and it still rebounded back up.
