So I was fixing my stuck down DHX, and another mechanic picked up the damper body and cycled it when I had no air in the Boost side. So now my oil is emulsified. I need to bleed the sucker, and I've never done it on an air shock. What's the trick here? I know it's easy on a coil over, I've done swingers and regular DHXs before. So do I have to disassemble the whole shaft and reassemble the thing in an oil bath, or can I simply open the bleed port, drain the old oil and cycle in an oil bath to bleed it?
