I\v rebuild my rear air shock.
but I'v found out that the only thing it's done was lubricating it ...
how can I open the part with the shims?
anyone did it alone?
or is it something for the fox guys?

thanks

Float???


'Vanilla' is Fox speak for coil sprung.

The non resevior shocks do not have a schrader valve for air/nitro, so it is not so easy to depressurize/repressurize them.

Other than that, it is pretty much the same procedure as any shock as far as having to set bleed all of the air out of the oil chamber.

Some of the air Fox shocks dont use tradiditonal 'shims on the main piston' set up, so even if you have access to shims it might not be as simple as it would seem.
