LOL omg I love it
Let's review here.....I don't think your picking up what I'm laying down here. I said your screwed .......then,you said I love it.....there only two ways to make sense of this, either you totally misunderstood my seemingly crystal clear assessment of your predicament ....or and this is more likely by the way....you are a sadist.
In my humble opinion,
As far as a shocks or forks are concerned, to change the fluid...
If I remove the inner stanchion or rod from the seal, I will change the seal with new.
If I can drain and refill the fluid without removing the inner stanchion or rod from the seals, then I won't fix what isn't broke.

Oh.....well I guess their are three possibility then.......that's a relief.
Night and Day difference when I did it to my 01. You said you wanted to make it like a whole new bike, passing up the rear shock is half assing it, and yes, even if there's no oil leaking the oil will still be broken down and contaminated, it gets hot in there, just because most people run their suspension components till they leak doesn't mean it doesn't need to be done.
I was prepping the engine cases for the new bearings, and had forgotten the first time we put the cases together we ended up breaking a bolt off in a deep case bolt hole. So now that I have them apart again I went at this with a punch, a MAP torch, easy outs, chisel and hammer.
looks, like you used a punch, a map torch, easy outs,chisel,a hammer and.......a rubber band
