FOX™ PODIUM X Shock Rebuild Information
When performing maintenance on FOX™ shocks, use the Gas
Shock Recharging Kit (PN 2200421), as it contains the
necessary valves, pressure gauge, and fittings to deflate and
pressurize shocks.
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.
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.
