Well I blew my shock a while ago and none of the dealers around here can fix it. As I remember there was a site we talk about that I e-mail and they said they could rebuild and revalve my rear shock. I was going to wait till the winter but I wasn't planning on my shock blowing out.

Can anyone help, I remember it started with performance or something like that. Does anyone know of any places that can help me

What do you mean by "blow"? Is it leaking oil from the seal head? Is it not holding a nitrogen charge? You may be able to fix this yourself. It's the perfect opportunity really. I mean it's already broken right? What have you got to lose? There are a number of howtos on the Internet on shock disassembly and repair. Most notably on MXtech's site.
As long as the shaft, and cylinder wall aren't scored, most of the seals are readily accessible, and fairly straightforward to install.

I have to say the nitro and oil seal because I'm not leaking oil but after a big jump that I hit the shock bottoms on jumps that it never even went through half stroke. I can't work on it because is a sealed unit which requires special equiment which my dealers dont have and I don't either
