FOX™ Zero PRO Shock Disassembly
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 working on shock absorbers.
TIP: Ext
reme 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. Remove the shock from the vehicle. Clean the shock
a
ssembly thoroughly with warm, soapy water.
2. Remove eyelet bushings and sleeves from body cap
an
d shock rod eyelet.
3. Secure shock in a bench vise as shown below. Insert
the Top Fill Shock Fill Tool (PU-51039) into the hole
in th
e body. Depress the needle into the body cap to
release the nitrogen gas pressure.
4. With shock discharged, mount the shock in the vise
with
the shock rod up. Use a wrench to unscrew the
bearing assembly cap.
Shocks contain high pressure nitrogen gas. Extreme
caution must be used while handling and working with
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.
