How much does it cost? How is it done? Time consuming?

I don't know. I was offered one but was told it needed to be rebuilt so I'm trying to figure out if I should buy the used one and rebuild it or if it is just cheaper to buy a new one.

Taco ..if its a mr mucle/denton type ( i think these are similar)..then most likely the answer to rebuild w/rebuild kit ..sounds like the rachet mechanism has failed..the kit has the peices for fixing this ....

yup it sure is. So can anyone do this with a good mechanical knowledge? What type of oil goes in it and how do you put it in?

you can do it ..gets some rags handy..can be messy
the kits suggests a fork oil ..
a bud who owns a shop locally suggested using a mid weight oil ..
it has worked good so far ..
I say..... go for it ....
