Penske service

[juniorfjr]

Got to give a big shoutout to Escapefjrtist. Went over to Georges house today and he showed me how many parts there are in a Penske. Two hours of catching up and bs and I had a fully reconditioned shock. Thanks G

Does he do Ohlins??

No Öhlins 'pup. Need more specialized equipment and since I don't own one and I'm not in business...

Just kidding George, because if you did, I knew it would be done A+ tops!

 

[escapefjrtist]

^^^^ I knew you were kidding Sam and thanks!

Has Penske ever fixed the clevis issue?

Has Penske ever fixed the clevis issue?

No, but those clever PNW guys have a fix and that's included in the service. They have machined another 30000 off of the shoulder of the bolt head I think. G should chime in and explain what they did.

^^^^ There's a Penske thread with several options to overcome the clevis fit. Weed through the arrogant naysayers and make your own decision which option you like best.

Yes, removing ~.030 -.035 from the head is one solution.
