HOLD OFF ON THE YEARBEN SHOCKS,  BOTH OF MY REAR SHOCKS ARE NOW SPRINGS, LOST ALL THE OIL, NOT SHOCK ABSORBER ANY MORE!  

AND I ONLY HAVE ~ 3500 MILES OF EASY RIDING ON THEM, I NEVER GO AIRBORNE (on purpose) and stay out of the rough stuff.

TRYING TO GET REBUILD KIT, NO LUCK SO FAR,  IF AND WHEN I FIND THEM, i'LL POST

I would mean my dampers are cheaper and better in performance as they are easily adjustable from the outside in bump and rebound - indepently from another.

 

And these shocks are used in UK racing series... that's says enough. 0b2945342beba1adb4fd975a3dfe8041.jpg2cc09e5f72cacb73eef66a061c8fb518.jpg

That is the hardest thing to get the right spring.There are guys who know what they were doing had to buy several springs Lenny is just one of many.Who bought 2 or 3 sets.Springs are vary expensive over hear in the USA.Shock looks good its all the other stuff that cost the money.Yearben makes shocks that are just bolt on and your done.

Thanks for your info.

@Kinarfi What make of a Joyner do you have? You might ask @silverbullet if he has any new shocks, he does a lot of Joyner.

Don't want to be rude, but where have you been, have you looked at my avatar, it's a blue 2015 Joyner Trooper, and if I were to be rude, I would say that I don't have much faith in silverbullet, and I should delete this post, but I'm in a bad mood from fighting with unrebuildable Yearben P.O.S. shocks all day, They are going into a box and I don't plan on opening again because I don't know what to do with them.  Did I say the lower orbital bearing  came apart in less than 4000 miles?  

I'm going back to my FOA shocks that I saved off my old Trooper.

I'm not mad at you, just don't have faith in you, and I prefer to leave it at that! I will not be drawn into a bickering match, and I will NOT respond to again to any (of you're) posts on this subject. 

I can not endorse Yearben Shock from you, from Joyner USA or any one else, mine failed in short order and I am unable to rebuild them, at present, there is no REBUILD kit available, so they are NOT rebuildable.

I am putting my old F. O. A. shocks back on and changing the spring rate from 600 over 400 to 400 over 200 and putting seal kits in both sides, I'm a little pissed at F. O. A. UPS, I ordered my springs and kits on Fri., they said I should have them Monday via UPS, called back when UPS didn't deliver them, they said they'd be here today, Tue, but Tracking says they didn't ship Mon., evening and won't be here til tomorrow, THEY LIED TO ME, WHAT ELSE IS NEW????

I'm in the process of making apologies to F. O. A., I guess they didn't lie to me, It appears that UPS just doesn't get things done as quickly as expected, maybe it's just the Las Vegas branch, maybe they just want to irritate me.  As stated, I ordered on Friday, UPS processed Monday, delivered Tuesday, I was in my garage all day Tuesday with the garage door open, watching and waiting, I never saw UPS at all so I checked the status on my computer around 6 pm and they had been delivered at 02:40, at the front door, next to the the open garage door, right beside the red bench that blocks the front door so the package was kind of hidden from view.  Now I have another order, placed in the morning, F.O.A. indicated that the order would be processed immediately, but I bet UPS didn't pickup to afternoon or so, so it didn't process until 06/08/2017 7:08 P.M. (ET) and will be sitting in St. George, UT over the weekend and NOT be delivered until Monday afternoon, while I wait, Impatiently for what was hoped to be delivered Friday or Saturday!

As I was rebuilding my F-O-A Shocks, I was having problem getting the main shaft seal to go in and gave F-O-A a call plus a email with photos, while discussing MY problem, F-O-A took the time to look at my photos and once he understood my problem, the best solution was ordered.

F-O-A does get my endorsement, they are easily resealable and/or rebuildable and the kits are only a phone call away, plus the UPS time?IMHO, they must use some good quality parts, I'm still using the original orbital bearings from 2009, 7 - 8 years so far instead of failing after 1.5-2 years.

I have been having trouble with UPS in SE, Texas, lately,  I ordered a new piston and rings for my Mule 550, anyway, they said it  was to be delieverd  on may 28th between 2:30 and 6:45. May 29th, still no piston. Called them, and they said " They should've been deliverd yesterday," I told them to go look, guy puts me on hold, comes back, " Well appearntly your package didn't make it on the truck....."

Because UPS seems to be waiting a day to process my orders from F-O-A, meaning what should be here today or tomorrow won't be here until Monday, so I had time to figure out how Yearben shocks come apart, I could labor on and tell you, but I'll let you figure out your self if you buy them, my opinion, I'm not too proud of them, they don't lend themselves to being rebuilt because I doubt the main shaft seal probably won't be available, the rest are just O-rings, once you figure out how to get at them, they use what appears to be a special compound to seal the seal and the threads, the nut that holds valve pack in place is welded, so you can't tune them.

I think they are a one use and replace shock and mine didn't last long enough to suit me and I don't how the ride compares to the stock shock because I replaced the rear stock ones on my 08 Trooper in 09 and the fronts in 12 and when I bought the blue 2015 Trooper, I ordered it with the Yearbens, they gave me a good ride for almost 4000 miles, at which point, they were out of oil, just springs, not shocks.

I can't endorse them, but I can't condemn them either, I don't know how much the were, so it's your choice.

I'm done here,

Jeff
