Pretty much!

• Fill the body up to just above the first thread inside
• put the cartridge in and tighten until a couple of threads are left.
• push the shock shaft in slowly to the bottom (and let the shock bleed oil)
• finally nip up the cartridge
• check the balljoint can bottom on the cartridge... if it doesn't loosen the cartdridge and bleed a little more oil.

Hope that helps
