Was wondering if the 2002 Raptor's piggyback shock is worthy of a revalve, or if my money would be better spent on an aftermarket shock. If this unit is of any quality, I wouldn't mind modifying it to better suit my needs. Does anyone know about this shock's potential, or has anyone been pleased with revalved stock rear shocks? Who did the work for you?

If been checking into getting my rear shock(01) redone also, not to much luck yet. I know I've read that it can be done, but can't remember who did the work. I'm hoping to add some travel to match the travel you can get out of aftermarket fronts. Seems to be a good unit, Can't see replacing it altogether(Hate to see that part sitting on the shelf). Does anyone know who makes this shock? Thanks.
