Hi all, my fox triad shock and fox float forks could do with a basic service and I would like to have a go myself.

Ive stripped a pair of revelations before so I have no issues trying to do it.

Is there a how to guide anywhere on how to do them ??

failing that has anyone done there own that could give me some hints and tips please!!

cheers

Have a look on the mojo website, theres also pretty comprehensive guides on the fox website too.
All pretty straightforward stuff.

That's for the air can service. And this is for the wiper seals on the forks.

As above - take your time. You'll need a 10mm deep socket and a flattened 26mm one IIRC. Good luck!

Thanks for the replies.

just a quick question about my rear shock, i dont think it has a bolt that goes through the bottom hole as there is some sort of extender on the bottom of it(2010 stumpjumper frame)

has anyone done the a service on the same model?? if so does the extender just unbolt or somthing?
