I've got a question?, recently the seal on my 91 K5 shock needed replaced, i went to a local dealer that wasnt a kawasaki dealer, they took it apart and the shaft had a couple of nicks in it, the guy told me it would be in the hundreds of dollars for just the shaft alone,ok i told him just to replace the seal just to get me through the summer and then i would buy another shock. he said he couldnt do that and that i would have to buy the whole kit which is the shaft, seal etc. the whole thing would of been around $500. my question is do i have to buy the whole kit or can i just replace the seal, he said they dont sell just the seal, so i bought a shock off of ebay for $100. thanks in advance.
