1. MOUNTING HARDWARE INSTALLATION Some mounting hardware is easily installed using only your fingers Press the bushing pin into the shock eyelet bushing until the pin protrudes from both sides of the eyelet an egual amount Next press an end spacer large diameter side first onto each end of the bushing pin If this works you have completed mounting hardware and bushing service If you are unable to install your mounting hardware using your fingers use the SRAM rear shock bushing removal installation tool Thread the small end of the push pin onto the threaded rod until the push pin is flush or slightly protrudes from the hex shaped end of the push pin 2 Insert the threaded rod through the bushing pin then through the shaft eyelet so that the bushing pin is positioned between the push pin and the eyelet 3 Thread the large open end of the catcher onto the rod until it rests on the evelet 10 MOUNTING HARDWARE INSTALLATION Clamp the catcher in a vise or hold it secure with a 13 mm wrench Use a second 13 mm wrench to thread the push pin along the rod until it pushes the bushing pin into the shock eyelet bushing Continue to thread the push pin until the bushing pin protrudes from both sides of the eyelet an egual amount You may nee to unthread the catcher slightly to check the bushing pin spacing Unthread the catcher from the threaded rod and remove the tool from the shaft eyelet Position the end spacer with t2. Apply a small amount of blue threadlock to the air can threads Do not get any threadlock on the o ring it will prevent the o ring from sealing properly 35 AIR CAN INSTALLATION 3 Position the threaded side of the air can over the damper body eyelet Firmly press the air can onto the air piston and damper body until the air can is approximately 30 mm from the shaft eyelet threads Pour inject 0 3 mL of Maxima Maxum4 Extra 15w 50 into the air can 4 Continue to press the air can onto the damper body until the air can threads and shaft eyelet threads make contact Thread the air can clockwise into the shaft eyelet Tighten the air can by hand into the shaft eyelet Do not allow the air can outer o ring to get pinched between the evelet body and the air can High volume air cans only Grip the lower portion of the can Otherwise the high volume sleeve will rotate independent of the air can preventing tightening of the air can 36 AIR CAN INSTALLATION Remove the shock from the vise Turn it over and clamp the damper eyelet into the vise so the shock is vertical Use isopropyl alcohol and a clean rag to clean the outside of the air can Use aluminum vise soft jaws to protect the damper eyelet when clamped Stabilize the air can with a strap wrench to prevent it from rotating Use a torque wrench with a 13mm Trek 40mm crowfoot socket to tighten the air can to 17 N m 150 in lb Autosag air cans only Reins
