    some places can re-chrome the shaft. If the shock will come apart it can be re-built although IMO the shocks on the Z are junk and it's worth the money to buy a works quadster and be done with it. I put a Warrior shock on my daily rider and am ordering a works shock for the racer!

    I couldnt agree more. Yamah shocks have a 2-3 year lifespan for me. With Warrior shocks selling under $100 now, they make a good replacement for less than the cost of a rebuild. I had my last rebuild before the days of ebay, and it was about $300 then. Probably about $150 now. The Works solution is a lot more permanent. I paid $200 for mine used, paid $75 to have it rebuilt and setup for MX for my weight.

    GT Thunder www.gtthunder.com rebuilds a lot of differnet shocks. I dont know about the TriZ.
