Insert positive air piston into bottom of upper tube.

Push air piston/shaft assembly into upper tube (fig 12c).

13. Slide the negative air piston sleeve down air spring shaft and into bottom of upper
tube (fig 13a). Continue to slide entire negative air spring sleeve into upper tube.
You may need to press the negative schrader air valve as you push the negative
sleeve into upper tube to release air pressure. This aids installation.
By hand, thread the air spring assembly threaded base retainer into upper tube
(fig 13b). This part is reverse threaded, so turn counterclockwise to thread into
upper tube.

14. Using the SID Dual Air upper tube retainer tool and a socket wrench, press into retainer firm and square
and tighten the threaded upper tube/base retainer to 30 in-lb (fig 14).

14

Remember, turn counterclockwise to tighten!

15. Position fork upright in bicycle work stand.

15

Measure and pour, or inject, 3 to 5 cc/ml of 15wt suspension oil into positive air chamber, through crown
and into upper tube (fig 15). Suspension oil on top of the positive air piston o-ring is critical to lubrication
and maintenance of the air seal.
TIP: EVERY MONTH, RELEASE ALL POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE AIR PRESSURE AND REMOVE AIR TOP CAP.
POUR OUT ANY REMAINING SUSPENSION OIL FROM POSITIVE AIR CHAMBER AND REFILL WITH 3 TO 5
CC/ML OF FRESH 15WT SUSPENSION OIL. THIS REDUCES AIR SPRING SERVICE INTERVALS AND IMPROVES
THE FUNCTION OF YOUR FORK.
16. Clean the air top cap and upper tube threads with a clean
rag.

16a

16c

By hand, install the air top cap (fig 16a/16b). Using a

24mm socket wrench, tighten to 60 in-lb (fig 16c).
Using a shock pump, inflate positive air chamber to about
70 psi. This extends the Dual Air shaft and ease
installation of the lower leg assembly.

facing up, pour 5wt suspension oil into the damper tube
until the tube is approximately half-full (fig 30a).
Tap the compression damper/damper tube assembly on a
flat surface lightly to release any air bubbles that may be
trapped inside the damper (figs 30b/30c).

31. Pour additional 5wt suspension oil into damper tube until completely full (fig 31a).
Remove the rebound damper/seal head assembly from the oil container
(remember, the rebound damper/seal head assembly should be submerged in oil).
Wrap a rag around the damper tube to catch displaced oil. Insert the rebound
piston into the damper tube slowly (fig 31b). Slide the piston into the damper
tube (fig 31c).
Insert the rebound damper seal head into the end of the damper tube and press
firmly into place (fig 31d).
Wipe away all displaced oil from the damper tube.
IMPORTANT! DO NOT CYCLE THE REBOUND DAMPER INTO THE DAMPER TUBE. THE
COMPRESSION DAMPER IS NOT SECURE IN THE DAMPER TUBE UNTIL THREADED INTO THE
UPPER AND TIGHTENED WITH A SOCKET WRENCH.

32. Inside the damper side upper tube (right) is an o-ring that sits in between the Motion Control damper
tube/rebound seal head and the upper tube thread base retainer, ensure the o-ring is positioned flat on the
threaded upper tube base retainer.

32

If this o-ring came out with the damper tube assembly, apply a small amount of grease to the o-ring and
place it on the bottom of the rebound damper seal head (fig 32).

33. Insert Motion Control damper assembly back into the upper tube, rebound shaft first (fig 33a). Guide the end of the rebound
damper through the center of the threaded base retainer. Be careful and do not allow the rebound damper shaft to scrape the

35. Using a 2.5mm hex wrench, loosen the cable stop clamp screw. Place the cable stop clamp on to the Motion Control top cap with
the cable top positioned approximately 90 degrees forward toward the steerer tube,
as pictured (fig 35a).

Turn the compression spool adjuster shaft counterclockwise until it stops. This is
the open position (fig 35b).
Place the remote spool onto the compression spool adjuster shaft (hex) and turn
clockwise until it stops (fig 35c). This is the closed (lockout) position. The spool
stop should be in the position pictured (fig 35c).
With one hand, hold the remote spool closed and rotate the cable stop clamp
counterclockwise with your free hand until the cable stop touches the remote spool
stop (fig 35d). The cable stop clamp should be loose enough to turn freely on the
top cap hex detents.

Place the remote spool and torsion spring back onto the compression damper
adjuster hex. The torsion spring prong fits into one detent hole in the top cap
(fig 35i). The cable set screw in the remote spool should be positioned in line with
the alignment mark on the cable set screw (fig 35j).
Turn the remote spool clockwise until spool-stop stops in the closed position

Slide lower leg assembly over and onto the ends of each
upper tube. Ensure both dust seals slide onto the tubes
correctly and do not fold under (fig 39a).
Continue sliding lower leg assembly onto upper tubes until
you feel the lower bushings touch the end of the upper
tubes (fig 39b). Pull lower leg assembly back off just
slightly so lower bushing is not touching bottom of upper tube. Stop (fig 39c).

Wipe all excess oil from lower legs.

41. Inspect and clean the rebound damper shaft bolt, Dual Air shaft nut and black nylon crush washers (fig 41).
Replace crush washers and crush washer retainer if damaged. Damaged or dirty crush washers can cause oil
to leak.

TROUBLE-SHOOTING
AIR LOSS

Inspect air piston o-rings. Replace if necessary.

To avoid air loss, remove Dual Air top cap and check oil level inside air chamber, every 25 to 50 riding hours. If there is little or
no oil on top of air piston o-ring, pour 3 to 5cc RockShox 15wt suspension oil into air spring chamber. Oil will keep air seal
lubricated.
Inspect schrader valve assembly. Replace if damaged or malfunctioning. Clean if clogged.

L O S S O F, O R VA R I A N C E I N D A M P I N G

Inspect all damper o-rings. Replace and lubricate.

Inspect damper oil volume. Remove damper top cap/compression damper assembly. Add or remove oil as needed.
Remote: Inspect remote cable tension. Cable may stretch, or become loose. Loosen cable screw, tension cable and tighten.
Test. Adjust as needed.

B U S H I N G P L AY

Inspect and replace worn bushings. Bushings are a wear and tear item, and need to be replaced after approximately 100 to 200
riding hours, depending your riding style, condition, riding time and body weight. If you ride a lot, check those bushings!
See the 'Bushing Installation' guide at www.rockshox.com for procedures.

OIL LOSS

Inspect the air piston o-ring for air bypass. If there is a repeated loss of air pressure, air may be the cause of oil loss at the left
dust seal.
Inspect your shaft bolt crush washers. Replace if worn or damaged.
Inspect your top cap o-rings. Replace if torn or knicked.
