I recently rebuilt a Monarch rt3 (2015) for a buddy and was disappointed with the packaging from RS. Usually the packages are broken down into specifics. These were, but seem to be missing parts that were needed and including some that I didn't need. For example, the canister- you remove the dust wiper, then the white spacer ring, the seal and the other white spacer ring. But the package had only 1 white spacer ring with it. I had to reuse one old one. Yet there's a green rubber washer (but not similar to the top out bumper) that didn't get used. Was it for the "R" or something?
Secondly, my tech question.
In the bottom of the shock you have to fill it up to 350psi. I have the pump and the adapter to do this. If you fill it up to 350 and remove the pump, not the valve adapter, you lose all the air. So you have to remove the adapter WITH the pump. I did this as quickly as possible, but you DO lose air. I'm losing about 100psi. I filled it up to 375 and ended up with 275. Will that 75 psi be noticeable in the (negative chamber)?
Ps. From the factory its filled with nitrogen, but RS says it's fine to refill with air.
Thanks, EC
