NO there is no shock rebuild kits. If they are the metal body ones you can take them apart and replace the O-rings inside, by taking the old ones to Ace Gardware and matching some up. Then buy some new shock oil to refill them. If they are the plastic body shocks throw them away and get some nice metal body shocks, LOL, no kidding. Only thing you can do with the plastic body ones is use the spring tunning clips to take up the slack.

Your dog bones are 06061 Dogbones 84mm qty 2 (IF out of stock order 06022): [link=http://allaboutfunhobbies.com/store/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/1711]http://allaboutfunhobbies.com/store/catalog/product_info.php/products_id/1711[/link]

I know you asked 4 or 5 months ago, but here goes anyway..While Iwasresearching"dogbones (driveshafts)falling out" problem, I saw where someone said to use 45 weight shock oil and it helped keep the bones from falling out??May be worth a try? Also, if you look in the thread"Offroad setups:Camber, Caster, Tow.." someone posted a link to a "youtube" video, from a guy named "Squirell" and he's got tons of help vids on setting up your RC.. There's probably one on how to set it up to jump.. Best of luck!
