NOTE: Read through all of these instructions first to
familiarize yourself with the rebuild procedure. Make
sure you have a clean work area, and all of the
necessary tools are available. Always use proper
safety
equipment
when
absorbers.
WARNING
FOX™ shocks contain high pressure nitrogen gas.
Extreme caution must be used while handling and
working with FOX™ shocks and related high pressure
service equipment. The pressure must be released
from the shock before disassembly. It is strongly
recommended you wear safety glasses and ear
protection during these procedures.
TIP: Extreme cleanliness is very important during all
disassembly and reassembly operations. This prevents
dirt or foreign particles from entering the shock, which
causes premature failure.
1. If your shock DOES NOT have a spring installed,
skip to Step #4. Measure the spring preload set
length and record this number.
2. Back the preload adjustment ring off until spring is
loose on the body. Remove the lower spring
retaining clip.
3. Remove the spring.
4. Clean entire shock assembly with soapy water. Try to
remove as much dirt and grime as possible by
scrubbing with a soft bristle brush. Never pressure
wash shock, as this can force water and debris
inside which will damage the seals. Dry the shock
assembly with compressed air, if available, or use
clean towels.
5. Locate the retaining rings holding the spheical
bearing in the ear of the body cap assembly.
