Shock Rebuilder Question

Since it seems my TR3 lever shocks need to be dismantled, I was wondering if anyone had experience with World Wide Auto Parts?

I've heard about Apple Hydraulics. People around here seem to rate their work highly. Just wondering if anyone here has had experience with the competition...
 
I have not had personal experience but have hearn nothing but good about them.
 
I had them do my TR6 shocks two years ago with the HD bronze valves and they are great.

Good pricing, quick turn around and great service for questions and answers.
 
PeterC, board member, https://www.nosimport.com/ also rebuilds Armstrong dampers. (Hmm, looking at the webpage, it seems NOSImport = WWAP.) Feedback is universally positive.

Looks like $70 a side, plus core charge... from what I have read, their rebuilding process is more thorough than that used by Apple. I think I have a thread somewhere with an explanation from Peter of what they do. Of note, their shocks are lifetime-guaranteed against leaks.
 
Thanks everyone...
I have contacted Peter.
The rebuild saga continues.
I wonder if he can rebuild my wallet, so IT doesn't leak so bad...

I used apple hydrolics and got the HD version, they had a rebuild set in stock, quick turnaround, and I like them
