I dont think stock ones are rebuildable, You can buy them separately though, people tend to replace them in pairs because when they are replacing them it is because they are wore out on both sides an having just one replaced would cause weird handling.

You can buy one from a Ford dealer, but they're about $95 a piece. (Actually, that's a quote for a single front strut, but I assume the rears are similar.) Call your local Ford dealer and see how much they want. Be sure to specify "ZX2 S/R strut" since that's what it is. (I'll also have some lightly used extra rears in a little while. PM or email me and we can probably work something out.)
Oh, and the ZX2 S/R struts are not repairable.
