Valve Stack Maintenance
11. Place shock rod in the vise by the upper eyelet.
12. Remove the lock nut from the shock rod.
13. Place the valve stack on a clean shop towel.
NOTE: Make sure to place the valve stack on a shop
towel in the order that you remove them. This will
help when assembling them back on the shock rod.
14. Inspect the valves for kinks, waves, pits, or foreign
material.
15. Inspect the piston wear band for scratches or nicks,
and replace if needed.
Shock Assembly
16. Secure the piston rod in the vise with the threads up
as shown and secure it by the shock mounting eye.
17. Place the compression valve washers on the rod in
the reverse order of disassembly.
NOTE: Special attention should be paid to the orientation
of the valve piston, and the order of the compression and
rebound discs (shims) in the stack, ensuring that they are
in the correct position upon assembly. Refer to appropriate
valve stack and piston orientation illustration on page 7.12
(front track shock) or 7.13 (rear track shock) prior to assembly.
18. Place a NEW lock nut (PN 1800031) on the piston
rod. Torque to 14 ft.lbs.(19 Nm).
NOTE: DO NOT OVER-TORQUE. If excessive torque is
applied, damage to the piston and valves will occur.
Filling, Bleeding, & Charging
19. Secure the shock body by its lower mount in vise.
The use of soft jaws is recommend to prevent
damage or marks to the shock.
20. Set the compression damping adjustment knob to
“1”.
