FOX FLOAT X (2022+) Full DIY Rebuild Toolkit
Complete home rebuild toolkit for the FOX FLOAT X and Bomber Air shocks (2022+). Covers everything needed for a proper 50h service up to a full 200h damper rebuild.
The two main dynamic O-rings (damper shaft + IFP) are included in this kit.
FOX specifies several chamferless sockets for this shock, but in practice the rebuild can be done safely with standard tools, as long as torque is controlled properly using the luggage scale method.
What This Kit Is For
This kit allows a full teardown and rebuild of the FOX FLOAT X damper.
- 200h full damper rebuild
- Correct IFP depth and pressurization
- Proper hand-bleed procedure
Intended for careful home mechanics.
What’s Included in the Kit
- 1/2" Shaft Clamp — fits the FLOAT X / Bomber Air main shaft
- Graduated IFP Depth Tool — required for accurate IFP depth setting
- FLOAT X Pin Socket — required for 47.5–75 mm travel shocks
- 2× Main Dynamic O-rings (included) — damper shaft seal O-ring and IFP seal O-ring
Tools NOT Included (You Still Need These)
This kit does not include common shop consumables and small tools required to complete the rebuild:
- Valve core remover
- Shock pump
- RockShox air fill adapter (FOX uses the same thread)
- Syringe for oil transfer / bleed cleanup
- Damper oil (4 wt)
- Basic hand tools (Allen keys, open-end wrenches)
If you’ve serviced shocks before, you probably already own all of these.
Seal Kit Scope & Limitations
This toolkit includes the two critical dynamic O-rings (damper shaft + IFP). For most routine 200-hour services, this is sufficient.
If you are chasing air leaks or external oil leaks that are not coming from the damper shaft, a full seal kit may be required instead.
Compatible full seal kits include:
Compatibility & Tool Notes
- 37.5–45 mm travel: opens with a 32 mm wrench after removing the travel spacer plate
- 47.5–75 mm travel: requires the pin socket tool included here
- No base valve or rebound pin sockets required
- Knipex Pliers Wrench can be used on the sealhead if needed (may leave cosmetic marks)
Reservoir & IFP Specifications
- S: 1.795" reservoir – 33 mm IFP depth
- M: 1.955" reservoir – 37 mm IFP depth
- L: 2.115" reservoir – 41 mm IFP depth
- XL: 2.275" reservoir – 45 mm IFP depth
- IFP Pressure: 150 psi
- Damper Oil: 4 wt
Bleeding, Safety & Disclaimer
FOX does not document a proper hand-bleed for this shock. Use the DPX2 hand-bleed procedure instead.
- Do not tear down the damper shaft or base valve unless leaking or revalving
- Always release air spring pressure before opening the damper
- Never open bleed screws while the system is pressurized
This kit is intended for careful home mechanics only. Damage caused by improper technique is not covered. By purchasing, you agree to our Terms of Service.
