1986 Brat/Brumby Front Suspension - Soft and then Hard

Featured Replies

Hi Folks,

 

When I push up and down on front of my Brumby, she bounces up and down easily a couple of times and then go firm all of a sudden, a little like pumping the brake pedal when there is air in the system.

 

Does this mean the struts need to be bleed (are they serviceable) or are my struts in dire need of replacement? If they need to be serviced are there kits available or if they need replacing, what are the best replacements? 

 

So many questions, so little time, have a good day Folks,

Only early MY's had rebuildable shocks (1981?), so I'd say new ones are the way to go. Sorry, can't help on recommendations for replacements as I'm running EJ struts...
