Yes Russel, they can be rebuilt. They were very good shocks in their day and if the shafts are still good then they are as good as any shocks from today, Bill Pye or falcons may help. I get them done in france from a brit....

alternatively go to ebay.it and search for fantic. A seller there called UGO has the repair kits listed.

Hello Russ

There`s a guy near us in stockton who rebuilds shocks and does a very good job of it. He has done some for me in the past and made new shafts, seals etc. His name is Joe Pitt and if you would like his contact number PM me.
