FOX™ PODIUM ‘Piggyback’
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.
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.
