Be careful if you need to bore out the holes to press in the new bearings, we did this to our risse shocks. we X-rayed them and found that we were very close to some internal channels, but we pressed in some steel sleeves and then the sphericals. so be careful

Sam-

What Risse's are you using? We used to run them and simply had them leave everythiing out of the end of the Jupiter-5. Aurora then can send you the joint that gets pressed into a 1/4" rod end and its a perfect fit to the aluminum bore of the Risse, just put some cylinder lock on it and never worry again. I would imagine the same would work for the Fox,as it did for the RockShox, but I do not know that.
