RockShox Charger RC + Air Shaft DIY Rebuild Toolkit

Everything you need to rebuild both the damper and the air spring on RockShox forks using the Charger RC damper. A perfect entry into MTB fork service, simple, effective, and confidence-building.

Need Seals?

This kit is compatible with ZEB, Lyrik, and Pike Select models from 2023 onward. It includes everything needed to fully rebuild:

Clamping Tip:
If your tool uses a big-diameter shaft clamp (like 20mm or more), make sure you're clamping it properly.
See the full clamping guide here: How to Use a Big Diameter Shaft Clamp
Air Spring Assembly Notes:

If you have an older DebonAir air spring, you technically don’t need any shaft clamps, but we include them anyway just in case. If you have DebonAir+, you’ll need the included shaft clamp.

If your fork has ButterCups, it gets a little trickier
 but you’ve got this. Most forks with this damper don’t use ButterCups anyway because it’s not the Ultimate model.

Like any air spring job: don’t scratch the shaft, don’t over-grease it, and take your time. This is a great first service job to get familiar with how forks work.

Included in This Kit:
  • Charger Combo Clamp : holds both the damper body and 10mm air shaft if needed!
  • Dust Wiper Seal Press Tool : choose your model at the bottom of the page

These tools make it safe to disassemble your fork without damaging shafts or seals. All parts are designed for real-world home use with regular bench vises and hand tools.

Service Tips:
  • Use a cassette tool (link below) to open the Charger RC top cap.
  • Refer to the SRAM service manual: Starts on page 148.
  • Always open compression adjusters fully when reinstalling the top cap, the system will bleed itself after a few strokes.
Recommended Tools & Resources:
⚠ Warnings:
- Always depressurize air before opening your fork
- Don’t overtighten top caps or seal heads
- Never clamp directly on the shaft or stanchions
- Check compatibility if your fork has ButterCups
Disclaimer: DIY at your own risk. This kit includes custom tools only, no seals or grease or the extra tools that you need to buy yourself are included. For full details see SRAM's official manuals. By purchasing this product, you agree to our Terms of Service.
