Thermoflow Shock rebuild was created by mpritch41

I'm About to rebuild another set of Thermoflow shocks. The last time I did this I used a punch and a hammer to get the top of the shock off...needless to say there has to be a better way

There are articles in Tech library that cover shock rebuild. I'm checking to see if that thread can be restored.
