I'm hoping Jakobi will chime in here as he is way more experienced than I but I just serviced my Ttx shock. I built a vacuum bleeder as they are the best way to fill the shock and from what I understand the best hand bleed will probably still have a bit of air in it. Does your shock have a torn screw at the top of it? If so, that is where the bleed adapter fits. Object is to have shock body completely full with reservoir full to piston (on mine) depth and no air in it. You may have a bladder in the 2000 shock though but goal is the same.

Worth noting is the amount of air in the shock fluid straight out of the bottle. I 'de-gassed' my fluid and was amazed at how long it took to become bubble-free.
