Step 12. Match the front shock assemblies and the rear shock
shaft assemblies. Fill the shock body (114) with shock fluid (115) up
to the bottom of the threads inside the shock body (114).
!
Step 13. Insert the front shaft assembly with the cartridge against
the shock piston (111). Slowly tighten the cartridge about two full
turns only. With the cartridge still slightly loose, slowly push the
shock shaft assembly into the shock body (114). This will bleed the
excess fluid out of the shock. Once the shaft assembly is all the way
down, tighten the shock cartridge the rest of the way. Repeat this for
the remaining front shock assembly and the two rear shock
assemblies.
Be sure to keep the front and rear shock assemblies separated
until they are assembled to the chassis.
!
Step 14. Now, with the shaft assembly still all the way in, secure
the cartridge by tightening with pliers or a 7/16" wrench
approximately 1/8 of a turn. There should be no air in the shocks as
you move the shaft (108) in and out. If there is you need more fluid. If
the shock does not compress all the way, the shock has too much
fluid. Repeat for the remaining shock assemblies.
If leaking persists around the outside, tighten the cartridge.
!
Step 15. Snap a shock spring cup (119) onto each of the four
shock shafts (108) and push down onto the shock end (109) until it
stops.
!
Step 16. Slide a 1" purple spring (117) down over each of the two
front shock assemblies so that it rests against the shock cup (119).
!
Step 17. Slide a 1" silver spring (116) down over each of the two
rear shock assemblies so that it rests against the shock cup (119).
!
Step 18. Insert a 4-40 x 3/8" cap head screw (30) into the larger
hole of each the four shock collars (118) and thread it into the smaller
hole.
!
Step 19. With the collar (118) loose, slide it down over the top of
each shock body (114) and against the shock spring (116), (117).
Tighten the collar (118) to hold it in place.
Do not overtighten!
