A damaged or scored shock shaft doesn’t just look bad, it destroys seals, causes leaks, and kills performance fast. At T2 Shock Garage, our shock shaft rehoning service restores the surface of your shaft to near-factory smoothness, ensuring your suspension seals properly, moves cleanly, and performs the way it was engineered to. Rehoning isn’t a “nice to have.” If your shaft is scratched, pitted, or worn, it’s the difference between a shock that holds pressure, and one that fails.

If you’re feeling any of the following, it’s time:

• Premature seal wear

• Constant oil leaks

• Nitrogen loss

• Sticky or inconsistent suspension movement

• Loss of dampening control

• Higher internal friction

• Reduced shock lifespan

Rehoning removes the micro-damage that causes all this and restores proper function.

Before we rehone a shaft, we evaluate for:

• Scratches or grooves
• Pitting
• Rust or corrosion spots
• Wear from sand, dirt, or improper maintenance
• Seal lip damage
• Bent or out-of-round shafts

If the shaft is too far gone, we’ll recommend replacement. But most are recoverable, and rehoning makes them as smooth as new.

Rehoning is about precision, not sanding, not polishing, and definitely not “hoping for the best.”

Here’s what you get:

• Full inspection of shaft condition

• Precision rehoning to restore smoothness

• Correct surface finish to maintain seal life

• Cleaning and prep for reassembly

• Seal recommendations if wear is present

• Reinstallation during your rebuild (or as a standalone service)

A properly honed shaft protects your seals, your oil, and your entire suspension system.

You should consider rehoning if:

• You see oil leaking around the shock
• Your seals blow repeatedly
• You notice scratches or scuffs
• Your suspension feels sticky or inconsistent
• You ride in sand, mud, or harsh desert conditions
• You’re already doing a shock rebuild

If you’re opening a shock, it’s the perfect time to fix the shaft.

• Technical expertise

• Honest recommendations

• Fast turnaround

• Local shop that understands desert wear

• Clean, precise, no-B.S. workmanship

Your shaft is one of the most important components inside your shock. Don’t let a small scratch ruin a full rebuild.
