I need to disconnect the rear shock reservoir on my 07 Ss in order to lengthen it.
From my research it seems that I need to get this re pressurized now, correct?
Does the shock need to be disassembled to do this?
Can anyone give me some insight on this?

Thanks,
Jay

You do not have to strip the shocker but the reservoir needs charging with Nitrogen to about 140psi (check that out).

I found a stack of info and downloadable manual info at:
