Push the rebound seal head firmly into the upper tube until the
8
retaining ring groove is visible.
Push the rebound damper shaft into the seal head, until enough
shaft is exposed to hold onto with your fingers.
Use internal snap ring pliers to secure the snap ring into the
9
retaining ring groove.
Make sure the snap ring is securely fastened in the snap ring
groove. Check this by using the snap ring pliers to rotate the
snap ring back and forth a couple of times, then firmly pulling
down on the air shaft.
Snap rings have a sharper-edged side and a rounder-edged side.
Installing snap rings with the sharper-edged side facing the tool
will allow for easier installation and removal.
Clamp the fork vertically in the bicycle stand. Pull the rebound
10
damper shaft down to the fully extended position.
Use the chart to determine the amount of RockShox 5wt
suspension fluid to measure and pour into the drive side upper
tube.

Suspension fluid volume is critical. Too much suspension fluid
reduces available travel, too little suspension fluid decreases
damping performance.
Turn the hex shaft to the unlocked position. Insert the compression
11
damper into the upper tube. Press down and rock side to side until
the damper is installed.
