am going to change my wiper seals and foam rings, and i thought i might change the oil at the same time.

2011 140 Float RL FIT

So am going to remove the lowers with bike upside down then after i've done seals tip bike up to drain the legs.

When i drain the oil out of the legs does the damper circuit oil stay in a seperate cartridge? Or does this drain out as well?

Then i just pour new oil into the legs as per volumes on the fox service page? Is this easier to do before fitting the lowers, or do i do it through the holes on the lowers before i fully seat them.

Cheers

Damper oil is inside a sealed cartridge on the FIT models,so all you'll change is the lubricating oil in the lowers, use a syringe through the holes in the legs to fill them.
