Product Details

Overview & Technology

RockShox IFP Height Tool (SD/SDC A1+) is a purpose-built service tool for accurately setting the Internal Floating Piston (IFP) height in SuperDeluxe and SuperDeluxe Coil A1+ rear shocks (2018 and newer). Manufactured to OEM spec and stamped with SRAM Model ID TL-RST-IFP-A1, this tool ensures repeatable, factory-correct IFP positioning during rebuilds and damper services. The tool is precision machined to align with the shock’s internal geometry, minimizing the risk of incorrect spacing that can lead to poor damping performance or premature failure. At just 0.15 lb and compact shipping dimensions (5.1" x 2.5" x 1.4"), it’s lightweight, easy to store in a mechanic’s toolkit, and rugged enough for regular workshop use.

Key Features

Built to OEM standards: machined to the exact tolerances RockShox requires for A1+ SuperDeluxe units, including the Super Deluxe Coil variant. The tool’s construction helps you set the IFP height precisely and consistently during service. Service-friendly design: compact form factor and a durable steel/plated finish resist workshop wear while offering the feel and accuracy needed for professional rebuilds and confident home servicing. Includes reference to Manufacturer Part # 00.4318.041.002 and Forest Bikes Product Number 902473.

Fit & Compatibility

This IFP Height Tool is specifically compatible with RockShox SuperDeluxe and SuperDeluxe Coil A1+ rear shocks produced from 2018 onward. Confirm compatibility by checking your shock’s model stamping and comparing it to SRAM Model ID: TL-RST-IFP-A1. Not intended for older SuperDeluxe revisions or other shock families without explicit RockShox/OEM confirmation. If you're servicing multiple shock types, check each model's service manual — incorrect IFP setting can affect damping and void warranties.

Who It's For

This is an essential tool for professional mechanics, bike shop technicians, and experienced home wrenches who rebuild or service RockShox SuperDeluxe A1+ shocks. It delivers the accuracy needed to restore factory damping performance after seal replacement, damper rebuilds, or when adjusting internal volumes. Trail riders and racers who perform their own suspension maintenance will appreciate the repeatability and OEM fit — if you regularly open and service your rear shock, this tool pays for itself in time saved and reduced risk of setup errors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does an IFP Height Tool do?

The IFP Height Tool sets the Internal Floating Piston (IFP) to the precise factory-specified position inside the shock. Proper IFP height controls oil and air volumes that determine damping behavior and prevents damage from incorrect clearances.

Is this tool compatible with my SuperDeluxe shock?

This tool is compatible with SuperDeluxe and SuperDeluxe Coil A1+ models from 2018 onward. Check your shock stamping or service manual for SRAM Model ID TL-RST-IFP-A1 to confirm fit.

Do I need this tool to service a SuperDeluxe shock?

While some basic maintenance can be done without it, the IFP Height Tool is necessary for accurate IFP placement during full rebuilds and damper services. Using the proper tool reduces the risk of improper damping and helps maintain warranty compliance.

What materials is the tool made from?

The tool is machined from hard-wearing steel with a corrosion-resistant finish designed for repeated shop use. Its rigid construction delivers the dimensional stability needed for precise measurements.

Can one tool service multiple shock models?

This specific tool is designed for A1+ SuperDeluxe variants. Other RockShox models or older SuperDeluxe revisions may require different IFP tools — always verify with the manufacturer or service manual before use.

What are the shipping dimensions and weight?

Shipping dimensions are compact at 5.1" x 2.5" x 1.4", and the tool weighs approximately 0.15 lb, making it easy to mail or carry in a tool roll.

Buying Guide

When buying an IFP height tool, confirm model-year compatibility and OEM part numbers — in this case Manufacturer Part # 00.4318.041.002 and SRAM Model ID TL-RST-IFP-A1. If you routinely service RockShox SuperDeluxe A1+ units, investing in the correct tool avoids guesswork and delivers consistent, factory-accurate results. Also consider pairing the tool with a full damper service kit (seals, specified shock oil) and basic workshop gear like a torque wrench and calipers. For occasional home maintenance, check whether a local shop offers service if you’d rather avoid buying niche tools.
