Leaking (new) Icon Shock Question/Help

[OregonTrailRunner]

Leaving for Whistler in the morning and doing my pre-flight inspection this morning found a leaking driver side front shock. Actually, I found a small drop of oil on the garage floor and found the scorce to be the shock. By the looks of the leakage this is a new development.

My problem is I'm heading north in the morning. Today is Sunday and noboby is open to even talk to.

Shocks are two months old with no serious off-road use, just a few muddy roads, gravel and maybe 1000-2000 miles.

Drive it? Park it and cancel vacation?

Pretty sure I can't get it fixed by morning....

I've run them with a slow leak with the expectation they will grenade on me and never had them die...

I'd make sure Icon knows it's leaking BEFORE you take it on the trails and blame you for 'sploding it.

Thanks. I will contact the guys [MENTION=120150]TotalAutomotiveLV[/MENTION] where I bought them in the morning before I head out. I'll see what they say...

Run them and get them serviced when convenient. My right rear shock has been leaking for 3+ months, still plenty of oil and nitrogen in it. If I have time this week, I'll swap in my spare set of rears that I rebuilt a couple weeks ago.

Got it handled! Thanks to your team for the contact info. ICON said no worries. I'll deal with it when I get home...runner seems to handle fine. Thanks again!
