Walker Evans™ Shock Rebuild Information
When performing maintenance on Walker Evans™ shocks, use
the Gas Shock Recharging Kit (PN 2200421), as it contains the
necessary valves, pressure gauge, and fittings to deflate and
pressurize shocks.
WARNING
Walker Evans™ shocks contain high pressure nitrogen
gas. Extreme caution must be used while handling and
working with Walker Evans™ shocks and related high
pressure service equipment. The pressure must be
released from the shock before disassembly. It is
strongly recommended you wear safety glasses and
ear protection during these procedures.
