adjusting shocks

[stewie]

i have a set of kyb agx adjustable's, ive never changed the settings on them...but i want a stiffer ride now. how do i do this? do i just pop off the wheel and turn the dial to 4 or 5?(cant remember how high the numbers go)

for those of you who have these shocks, what setting do you find best?

[Bruce Banner]

pop the hood and the adjustment is at the top of the strut.
1-4.
Rears reach behind the wheel and turn the dial 1-8.

I run them at full during the summer.

i didnt know the rears had a dial


so for the front shocks, how do i do it? use a wrench or something? cause i know theres a dial on the base of the shock

on the fronts you will need a small screwdriver that is suppliesd with the struts. open the hood, locate the struts, theres four numbers 1-4 , a lil white dot that will show were they are adjsuted too. as for the rears get on the floor turn the knob until you want it where you want it. theres a lil arrow that point to the number1-8.
3 up front
6 in rear

Don't forget to push down on the front ones while adjusting them and turn them clockwise, you could harm the shock if you turn them counter clockwise.

But you will need to turn them counter clock wise to dial them down.

mine didnt come with a special screwdriver to adjust the front shocks...can i use a normal one?

yes

i reached my hand round the back shocks and couldnt find a lil knob to turn...is it only the fronts that can be adjusted?

[wed3k]

if you look low enough you can see the knobs meng

Look from under the rear of the car.
