Fox Rear Shock Seal Kit

If you notice oil weeping around the shock shaft, a loss of air pressure, or the suspension feeling sluggish and less responsive than usual, it is time for a service. These are clear indicators that the internal seals have worn down and are no longer holding pressure or damping oil effectively.

No, this specific kit is precision-engineered for Fox RC4 and RC2 rear shocks. Always verify your specific shock model and year before purchasing, as internal seal dimensions vary significantly across the Fox product lineup.

If you have experience with suspension maintenance and the proper tools, such as a shock pump, seal drivers, and the correct suspension fluid, you can perform this service yourself. However, if you are uncomfortable working with pressurized systems or lack the specific tools, it is safer to have a professional mechanic handle the installation.

For most riders, a full seal service is recommended once a year or every 100 to 125 hours of riding time. If you ride in particularly muddy, dusty, or wet conditions, you may need to perform this maintenance more frequently to prevent premature wear on the shock's internal components.

No, this kit contains only the replacement seals and o-rings. You will need to purchase the appropriate weight suspension fluid separately, as specified in your shock's service manual.
