Shock Adjustment?
03/17/11 at 14:40:32
 
Ok I know this is a stupid question but I have searched this site and I have searched the internet. To no avail I have not been able to find out how to adjust the rear shocks. Can someone help me here? I need to make the rear stiffer...

Ok that is exactly what I was wondering whether you put something in the hole or take the sleeve off. Thanks

If I remember correctly there are 4 or 5 steps of stiffness that you can preload the shocks for. Only way I could tell was laying down under it with a light to make sure I put both sides on the same setting.
