I kinda figured Baldwin be the first choice...wonder if the wait is as bad as the new purchase?

What series of PEP's are they? Race, LD, or ZPS?

They are limited mass valved mx. I really wish they were ZPS. The former rider weighed 165lb. The shocks have "alot" of time on them.. Baldwin says to ship them there for an estimate.

Well if Baldwin doesn't put new springs on them and they are worn down, a fresh coat of pc would make the shocks look a lot better...

I like the idea of pc...but thinking about the sequencing of that move...If I send em right off to Baldwin, and he services the shocks, where would the pc come in?:confused:

Well you can ask Mark if you can have some local person PC them or just send them some where while he is rebuilding them or you could take the springs off...

I was just out at Baldwins the other day. better be prepared for a longer wait than what they told you. It looked like a welfare line in there. Mark was telling me everyone is trying to get ready for the Nationals so that place is a mad house. There where people everywhere.
