Sucking noise - rear shock

Im getting a sucking noise from my rear shock and wondering if I just need to change the seals on them and if so how easy is it to change as Youtube make it look easy.
Shock is a Fox Float CDT Adjust Kashima.

Fox Float RP23 exploded

G'day Peeps!
Went for a city ride with the kids yesterday, and came back to our chained up bikes to discover a large puddle of fluid under my bike. Investigation found source was my Fox RP23 rear shock. There's actually oil all around its position to I'm guessing some seal failed pretty suddenly. In effect I've lost all damping (it still rests where it should, but now just bounces like a pogo stick).

Was hoping for some advice from any tecnhical bike boffins out there.

The Fox Float R rear shock on my '07 Trance is beginning to display significant wear after years of considerable abuse. It has been a great piece of equipment, but it is time to do 1 of 3 things: replace, recondition or find an alternative.

I have tried to find exact replacements, but am having no luck online - not sure if the Float R is even made anymore (all seems to be RP2 or RP23).

I have sourced a place over east that can recondition the shock for about $250, but it still leaves me with the same shock.

Fox RLC Series 2 shocks

My Fox RLC shock's lockout lever does not want to move from the lockout position. Has anyone encountered this problem before and is there any easy fix solution.
