Aight, I just got the adjustment tool. I was wondering what you guys used for your settings. Also, I just went out and played around, when I pressed down on the knob a little oil cam out on both the front struts, is this normal?

not sure about the oil...but i usually ran fill stiff on front and rear! hehe or as i liked to call it kidney killer! lol not really that stiff but it was a sweet ride. I never got the adjustment tool so i used pliers...sometimes it might get really stiff to use the tool...or it is for me atleast. you'll love em though. try em out full stiff for a while...if its too rough ease it up a bit untill you find the right setting for you.

you never want to ride full stiff...unless ur on the track.

i set mine at 360 from full soft...the car was actually skipping on turns.



for daily driving i set it at full soft...or 45 degrees from full soft.

for spirited driving...i do 90-180 degrees.

if i wanted to do some canyon driving or very spirited driving...i set it at 270 degrees.




i never went 360 since the day i installed it.

I don't remember any oil. :eh:

As for stiffness, I believe I have it 360* rear, and around 270* in the front.

well..i set mines full stiff...i didnt pay this much money for shocks that i could have got the same ride with blues or maybe kyb's...they are great shocks for the reason u can ride them hard. and you wouldnt want to use them full stiff in any track...at the drag strip you want full soft on the front...and at the autox u want a slight stiffness but not too harsh in the front so the car can slide around turns. never stiff on tracks. well not that i know of atleast.

there's no way I can keep mine on full stiff around here...y'all must have some nice roads.
