SHOCK MAINTENANCE
Changing oil on Shocks is recommended annually and should
be included when performing end of season storage
preparation. This oil change is necessary to avoid any chance
of corrosion which could be caused by moisture
contamination.
When performing maintenance on Shocks, use Gas Shock
Recharging Kit PN 2200421. It consists of the necessary
valves, pressure gauge, and fittings to deflate and pressurize
the shocks. The Body Holder Tool, Internal Floating Piston
(IFP), and Shock Rod Holding Tool are not included in the
Recharging Kit and must be ordered separately. Refer to your
SPX Specialty Tool catalog for part numbers.Videos on shock
