Question Front Shock Squeeks bad

If you saw the last post I greased up the whole front end only to find out that it was the shock squeeking. The joints were very dry, so the time and effort wasn't lost.

Anyone have some stock shocks they want to get rid of? Shot me a PM.

If you cant find shocks, try spraying them with penetrating oil. May be a dry seal, or the plastic dust cover squeeking as it slides over the body of the shock.

I just shot some silicon spray liberally under the dust "boot". I pushed the little straw up under the boot. It helped quite a bit. We will see how long it lasts, I have a 2 hour race this weekend.
