Part Preparation
Remove the component from the bicycle before service.
Disconnect and remove the remote cable or hydraulic hose from the fork or rear shock, if applicable. For additional information about RockShox
remotes, user manuals are available at www.sram.com/service.
Clean the exterior of the product with mild soap and water to avoid contamination of internal sealing part surfaces.
Service Procedures
The following procedures should be performed throughout service, unless otherwise specified.
Clean the part with RockShox Suspension Cleaner or isopropyl alcohol and
a clean, lint-free shop towel. For hard to reach places (e.g. upper tube, lower
leg), wrap a clean, lint-free shop towel around a non-metallic dowel to clean
the inside.
Clean the sealing surface on the part and inspect it for scratches.
Replace the o-ring or seal with a new one from the service kit. Use your
fingers or a pick to pierce and remove the old seal or o-ring.
Apply grease to the new seal or o-ring.
NOTICE
Do not scratch any sealing surfaces when servicing the product. Scratches
can cause leaks. Consult the spare parts catalog to replace the damaged
part.
Use aluminum soft jaws when placing a part in a bench vise. Specified torque value in N·m (in-lb)
Tighten the part with a torque wrench to the torque value listed in the red bar.
When using a crowfoot socket and torque wrench, install the crowfoot socket
at 90 degrees to the torque wrench.

drain from either side, the press fit of the shaft(s) into the lower leg may
still be engaged. Reinstall the bottom bolts 2 to 3 turns and repeat the
previous step.
