Ok, so i've been on Pinkbike for a while now and haven't needed to use the forum until now. I just finished building my downhill rig last year and I'm just now getting around to COMPLETELY dialing it in. I have a 2010 Rock Shox Boxxer team front fork that i got, and i need it rebuilt AND i need the springs swapped out for the spring that accommodates my weight. I also need my rear shock (fox dhx 5.0 pretty sure its a 2008 model) rebuilt and i need the proper spring for my weight as well. Now i weigh around 200 pounds, where could i send both pieces to get this done? Thanks for any help you could give me!

Get it pushed then tell us how it feels.

Yo Mr. Mod sir, i have a problem. Push'd doesn't do any boxers newer then 2009 :/. Know any other companies that could do a rebuild/custom cartridge setup? I know there was a company mentioned months ago in a feature, but i don't remember the name..

(EDIT) never mind i stumbled across cr-1 !

Hey, so CR-1 can't do anything for me, and neither can push as far as my 2010 boxer team. know any shops local to lancaster county pa that can rebuild it and put the spring in or am i out of luck? anywhere else i can send it to get it done?

if your feeling confident, service them yourself. boxxers really arent that complex, it just takes some patience and care. have a look on google for a service manual, you should find one easily enough. and with your rear shock, find a spring rate calculator, enter the details and there you go Smile . with all the settings on it, there are some good online tuning guides for DHX5.0s, have a look round and then a fiddle Smile

Well i'm going to get my rear shock Push'd, and i guess i could just get a rebuild kit from somewhere and do it myself...

sounds like a good plan Big Grin youve got to think, boxxers are relatively maintenance heavy, so itll save you a bomb in future being able to service them yourself
