From reading that, it doesn't seem that hard to just change the fluid. To me it looks like i just bleed off the nitrogen, remove the bladder cap, drain and fill with oil, put the bladder cap back on then have it recharged with nitrogen. I didn't see the need for any special tools. What special tools do you have for servicing your shock?

I would use Wilkey's directions for a rebuild but ignore the parts replacement portions if your components are still in good shape. If you don't clean things up after you've removed the old oil you're just wasting your time.

Now when I go to get it filled with Nitrogen, will that small amout of air effect the shock at all or do they vacuum out the air in there before filling the shock with Nitrogen?
and I plan on sending it back in the fall for a rebuild.
