Bottom Load Shock Snap Rings

Hi all. I am attempting to rebuild the shocks for my CE and I don’t have any replacements for the snap rings that go in the bottom of the shocks. Does anyone have a source for them? Thanks!

I've used these before, just for the c-clips,

I think you can use the 2 large washers for under the c-clips,

How compatible are the parts from the original bottom load shocks with the black cap top loading shocks?

Can I use the earlier gold caps from the bottom loaders on the top loaders?

Will they work work with the black o'rings from the black caps?...

Great. Thanks for the super quick response. I'm working on this now and was holding off form committing to one or the other.

I am surprised though that the caps are considered completely interchangeable, since the black o'ring is not captured by...

Can someone point me in the right direction as to a good set of snap ring pliers that fit these shocks without modding? I bought a set at Harbor Freight with multiple attachments but non worked for me. Thanks

I have never rebuilt any of the earlier bottom load shocks so I was wondering if the same shock rebuild kit for the later lop load shocks will work with them.

Last post

Nice! It costs a little more buying two kits...but makes it so much easier!

Anyone ever have any luck removing a retaining ring after both ends are broken off :shock: I have the shock gutted so there is plenty of room to maneuver just no way to pry it out. I've broken a couple xacto blades trying to snake under one end and...

Might seem barbaric but I actually pried the washer out underneath the clip first (which mangles it a bit but I can push it back into shape), then the clip comes out nice and easy :mrgreen:
