I need a seal kit for my fox dhx 5.0 coil over. Even the local bike shops cant get them from fox but I'm betting there is some online shop I'm overlooking.

Contact fox. They will actually deal with the consumer, as opposed to rock shox.

You can get them directly from FOX... that's how I get my FOX seals and oils. Not sure what their phone # is off hand but that would be better than ordering from them online. That way you can make sure you get exactly what you need.

Basically I need a complete rebuild kit for my shock, and from research I've found that for this particular shock fox isn't willing to sell the seal kits

Most of the fox shock dampers are not user serviceable according to fox. They are nitrogen charged also so they must be depressurized and then recharged. If its a coil over there is probably nothing for you to service since its just a big damper with a spring. Unless the DHX is a open bath or semi open bath like what you find in a non FIT cartridge fork, you wont be able to get seals and do em your self. The service kits available for fox shocks are all for the air sleeve on air shocks and nothing for the damper.

There is a very very good write up/PDF that can be found on this thread

I'm comfortable enough with my knowledge and mechanical skill that I want to give it a shot. There are 3 replacable o rings inside of the shock, and I'm pretty sure I only need to replace/inspect 1
