Yearben has been making shock in Chine.6 years of making shocks. What is in the picture is the Yearben shocks. I can only sell in sets of 4 pieces.

I am sorry but this is the only way I can buy them for awhile.1,000 set of four 1 year warrant on them kits to rebuild them are aveable to rebuild them.Kinarfi  said he had a small leak after 2 years. Kit are aveable to reseal them. They have made changes in the two years to improve them.

 

Sorry Rick

 

Kinarfi here, I have removed the yearben shocks!! The ones I have are NOT revalvable, the nut is welded on, there was oil in the reservoir pressure chamber and gas (air or Nitrogen) in the shock body, and no shock action, just springs at ~4000 miles, I haven't been able to get a rebuild kit, and you better figure on having to replace the shock eyes too, That's my experience, my thoughts are that they are what you pay for, CHEAP throw aways and no better the the stock shock

I have to call "bull shit" on this statement!  if air is used in shocks, even if it's 'wet', it is in the reservoir pressure tank, not in the oil, not mixed with the oil and does not contact the valving washers!  Maybe it does in Yearbens, don't know, but there was a lot of oil in the pressure part of the reservoir, and there seemed to be air/or nitrogen in the oil when I drained them, but it's my understanding oil and air/nitrogen shouldn't mix in any shock. 

The purpose of pressure on one side of the floating piston is to assist the oil in returning to the shock body as the shaft leaves the shock body during rebound, it keeps the oil from cavitating and adds nothing directly to the suspension and definitely doesn't damage valving washers. Not in anything I've seen.

oh yes, F-O-A Shocks are sold out of Las Vegas

Jeff Just call any shock company and ask what they recommend for any gas shocks.New FOA coilover inspection, problem, nitrogen charging You Tube.This is  good place to see the correct way to charging your shocks and see jeff is incorrect. 

Thank You

Granted, they recommend nitrogen, what you said is air damages valve springs, that's bullshit!!!  I used to run air over oil in motorcycle forks with no damage and in the shocks that have reservoirs, the gas (air or nitrogen) doesn't even touch the oil (except for my failed Yearbens) so how can it damage valve springs?????    Bull Shit!!!!!

Did you get my pm telling you not to say I'm using Yearbens on my Trooper?? I'm NOT!!!

i guess you can see for your self what Jeff said how the shocks work when he bought it..Jeff your cursing at me was not called for.And your answer was totally wrong on the gas for shocks.I don't know what's wrong with you but  you are hurting the young new members who look to the utv board for concise answering of new question and answers to help them.This Cursing and Flag story is out of control and knocking on any member is just wrong.I bet Lenny is shocked at what is happening on this site.JMHO as some one said on the UTV board.

I would like if you don't use profanity at me i never cursed at you.I think you should realize people respect your answers  i have ask for you help once or twice in the past.So lets get the UTV board back to helping new comers who need all of you with knowledge to lend a hand to them.I will help with any questions you guys have I am the oldest Joyner Dealer in the World.But even i have scratched me head many times.We are the only dealer in the USA with a large inventory of Performance Parts for Joyners.Renli,Sand Reeper,And any Chery Based Buggy.Call 928 246 6819

I sorry if YOU think "Bull Shit" is profanity and or cursing you, but sometime I just think you're full of it and get tired of reading it, This was a Joyner Trooper and other Joyners forum at one time and not a Silverbullet sales and advertisement forum, not my forum, so I can't stop you.

SO, Say what you will, I'm DONE with you!  NO replies, NO answers, but I would prefer you not make sale pitches in reply to my posts.

      When we first heard the noise, we immediately stopped driving it...at first we thought it might be a linkage issue, but after further inspection looks like the sound/jolting is coming from the rear diff. Took a video below...
      Anyone know what is creating the diff to skip/jump like this? We drained the diff oil and didn't look terrible, no metal.
      Other info that may be useful:
      1400 miles on it
      Recently tightened the E brake
      P.s. never posted on this forum before, let me know if the video does not work

      Have a Coleman UTV 400 that cranks, runs, drives well until it gets warm and is put under load.  Light throttle or full throttle it doesn't bog, but it will cut out mid throttle if you move the pedal quicker than it seems to like for example when you're getting ready to go up a hill, but if you immediately floor it, it will do just fine and not cut out.  It's random if and when it's going to do it, but is consistent in that it happens only when hot/full operating temperature.  I've replaced the injector twice, same with the spark plug and tried different heat ranges (NGK 7,8 and 8 iridium), replaced the fuel pump, adjusted the valves, checked air filter which is like new, changed the oil, replaced the fuel filter.  No check engine light.  I don't have a code reader for this.  Initially I thought it might have a head or head gasket issue as when I got it, the oil was over full, very runny like water milky and it was smoking.  I've changed the oil since then twice to clear and clean everything out, and it seems to be good.  Coolant stays the same level and so does oil with no changes in consistency or need for adding more. Had I think 7-9 miles when I got it and now has about 77.  What should I try or consider next?

      Unfortunately my rear Diff housing cracked on my 2013 and I need to replace it or find a good used complete differential.  I think the same one was used from 2013-2016?  Any help or referrals appreciated.  Thanks, Gary  (949)370-2575 (in UT)

      Has anyone purchased a rear differential from Alibaba, they want $432.00 for diff and $35.00 for shipping. This would be a great deal if I can trust them any thoughts?

      Any info would be appreciated as to where around Midlothian TX DFW area that I could take my own UTV to ride. I’ve done some google searches but am coming up short. Thanks
