liviob Posted December 6, 2010 Report Share Posted December 6, 2010 (edited) If you can get the ride height that you want with less than 10-15mm of preload than your spring is good. The shock damping controls the shock action. If there is no compression adjuster on the shock you could open the shock and replace the oil with an oil that is a few centistokes thicker than the oem oil. This will help with bottoming resistance and will slow the damper compression speed. Just dont go to thick or your rebound adjuster will not have enough adjustment to set your rebound speed where you like it. If you can find out what oil is in the shock you can use these charts to find or mix an oil that is maybe two centistokes thicker. You will know what to do after you make your first adjustment. Use 150 psi nitrogen for the recharge unless the manufacture specifies otherwise. http://www.pvdwiki.com/index.php?title=Suspension_Fluid http://www.peterverdonedesigns.com/files/Red%20Line%20Mix%20Chart.pdf Edited December 6, 2010 by Liviob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
