[QUOTE="bashn, post: 76510, member: 20847"] We checked for linkage binding and that's not it. The seal swelling may be more on target. The shock body and piston are both aluminium and should expand at the same rate, so I can't see the piston binding. I was thinking maybe a seal/bushing was getting soft and "wedging" or misforming into a place it didn't belong. The weird part is the stiction always disappears when the shock cools off. It's been disassembled and inspected once already, with no apparent problems. It's going back again, but I have doubts as to the outcome. This problem developed immediately after the first service, so I'm convinced the tuner introduced this problem in some way. Maybe a seal was installed incorrectly or was damaged when the shock was assembled? :think Mark [/QUOTE]
