I have a set of Fox Floats that need a complete rebuild, is there anyone in the Red Deer area that rebuilds these? I travel to both Calgary and Edmonton quite regularily if someone has a spot that they really recommend? Thanks for any help.

Well to make a long story short, they were leaking a little bit of air over an extended period this spring, so i thought since they were a couple years old i would get them rebuilt. I took them to my local Yamaha dealer who told me that they had never rebuilt a set but wanted to, so since i trusted them i gave them to him and left. 2 months later they decide they can't rebuild them so i tell them to just put them back together and i will pick them up, it taked almost 3 weeks for them to be put back together and several phone calls before i finally got them back. I went to pressurize them up with air the other night and one of the shocks sprayed oil all over me and has an obvious leak now. So now i am a disgruntled customer and need my shocks completely gone over to make sure nothing else is wrong.
