Step 1.
After removing the shock,
push up on the lower spring
cup and snap it off of the
shaft. Remove the spring.
NOTE: If you only wish to change
or fill the shock fluid skip to step 6.
Turn the shock upside down
and using the included shock
tool, remove the black shock
cartridge/shaft assembly from
the shock body by turning it
counter clockwise.
Step 2.
Step3.
Remove the 1/4" nut by turning it
counter-clockwise. Remove the
piston and washer. Remove the
old cartridge. Put a drop of shock
oil on the shock shaft before
installing new shock cartridge.

Tools Needed
Step 4.
Install washer onto the shock
shaft until it stops. Slide the
shock piston onto the shaft
against the washer. Reinstall
1/4" nut and tighten by
turning it clockwise.
Be sure to
reinstall
washer
Step 5.
If you plan on completely changing
the shock fluid (suggested) dump
out the old fluid from the shock
body before reinstalling the cart-
ridge/shaft assembly. Pull the shaft
out so that the piston is next to the
cartridge and reinstall the
assembly into the shock body and
tighten in a clockwise direction. Step 6.
Note: If you are just refilling your
shocks, be sure to use
Team Losi 30wt silicone
shock fluid. Remove the shock
cap and the small button head
screw and washer in the top of it.
Carefully fill the shock body with
fluid to the top. Move the shaft
up and down slowly to remove
bubbles. Top off with oil if needed.
Step 7.
Holding the shock upright, push
the shock shaft in slowly until it
bottoms out. While holding the
shock shaft in this position, replace
the small screw and washer in the
shock top. If fluid leaks around the
threads of the cartridge, it is
probably not tight enough.
Step 8.
Slide the spring over the
shock body against the
shock adjuster nut. Slide
the lower shock cup onto
the shock shaft and snap it
onto the shock end being
sure that it seats on the
mount.
Reinstall the shock.
