So, I got these shocks a couple months ago, had to send one back because of my own mistake and just got it back a couple weeks back. I started tuning them before, didn't get too far into it, but now I'm back at it trying to figure it out.
They've got one rebound adjuster and one compression adjuster. I'm wanting to see if someone on here can kind of point me in the right direction of a combination of settings for general street usage.
Right now, I'm set at 3 of 20 on the compression, and 9 of 20 on the rebound. It rides pretty good, but sometimes is a little bouncy. I can say though, over 40 on rough roads where everyone else is going 30 I can blitz it and it definitely feels planted more than with my 2.0s and soaks up a lot. It's almost like from 40-60 its exactly how I want it to ride, but below or above its not. If I back the compression down, the truck starts to feel like it doesn't have enough control, like a blown shock. I can remedy it by cranking down on the rebound.
I kinda feel like I'm shooting in the dark just hoping to figure this whole deal out. I'm hoping some of you have more experience with this type of thing and can kind of point me in the right direction. Am I getting to the right point with the whole "soft on compression with hard rebound?" Right now I'm just worried about street usage, as this truck is mostly always a pavement queen. I do run down some crappy roads though, so that has some effect on it too.
Anyways, here's a pic just because they look so purdy.
