[QUOTE="KiwiBird, post: 101462, member: 17232"] Ok - loosen off the adjusting collars on the shock so the spring is loose and then remove the collar (ring), which rests against the spring at the end with the rebound adjuster. The collar will either have a gap that fits over the shock shaft or it won't. If it has a gap, push the bottom out bumper down the shaft so you can remove the collar. If it has no gap, the same part is 2 piece, the piece against the spring is separate from the part closest to the shaft - clean it thoroughly and you will see the join. Hold the bottom out bumper and carefully hammer round the ring edge down towards the spring - the 2 pieces should separate and you will see the wire ring which you will remove. You can change the oil throught the compression adjuster AFTER YOU RELEASE THE GAS PRESSURE with the valve you mentioned. I'll give you details when you are ready. Once you have changed the oil and bleed the shock you can get it recharged with nitrogen (not air) at a dealer. Did you see the special bush for your fork at the Race Tech web site? Are we having fun yet? :) Kiwi [/QUOTE]
