Can the front struts be reconditioned on a 1989 Hijet, or will I need new or replacements? Down here in Tassie.

probably cheaper to replace where I work we make bike mono shocks and if we do a rebuild the only things carried over are the body and springs all internals and the rod with new guides and seals are replaced because if you have a knackered rod it will knaker the new seal and guide in no time.
