Step 18. Snap a shock spring cup (128) onto each of the four

shafts (118), (119) and down around the shock end (120).

!

Step 19. Slide a red, front shock spring (129) down over each

of the two front shocks so that the spring rests on the spring cup
(128).

!

Step 20. Insert a 4-40 x 3/8" cap-head screw (17) into the

larger hole of each of two shock collars (130) and thread the
screw into the smaller hole.

!

Step 21. With the collar (130) loose, slide it down over the

top of each shock body (125) and against the spring (129). Tighten
the collar (130) to hold it in place.

*NOTE: Do not overtighten!

!

Step 22. Repeat Steps 18-21 for the rear shocks using the

pink, rear springs (131).

!

Step 13. Match the short, front shock bodies (125) to the

short, front shafts (118), and the long, rear shock bodies (126) to
the long, rear shafts (119).

!

Step 14. Fill the shock body (125), (126) with shock fluid

(127) up to the bottom of the threads inside the shock body (125),
(126).

!

Step 15. Insert the shaft assembly with the cartridge against

the shock piston (123), (124). Slowly tighten the cartridge about
two full turns only. With the cartridge still slightly loose, slowly
push the shock shaft (118), (119) into the shock body (125), (126).
This will bleed the excess fluid out of the shock. Once the shaft
(118), (119) is all the way in, tighten the shock cartridge the rest
of the way.

*NOTE: Be sure to match the front shock shafts with the front shock

bodies.

!

Step 16. Now, with the shaft (118), (119) still all the way in,

secure the cartridge by tightening it with pliers or a wrench
approximately an additional 1/8 turn. There should be no air in
the shock as you push the shaft (118), (119) in and out. If there is,
the shock needs more fluid. If the shock does not compress all
the way, the shock has too much fluid in it.

*NOTE: If leaking persists around the outside, tighten the cartridge

a little more.

!

Step 17. Repeat Steps 14-16 for all four shocks.
