Adjustment
Rear Shocks
Left and right adjusting cams must
always be set at the same posi-
tion. Never adjust one adjusting
cam only. Uneven adjustment can
cause poor handling and loss of
stability, which could lead to an ac-
cident.
Preload Adjustment
Adjust spring preload by turning ad-
justing cam accordingly with the ad-
justing wrench in vehicle tool box.
Turn the adjusting cams clockwise for
a firmer ride and rough road condition
or when carrying cargo or pulling a
trailer.
Turn the adjusting cams counterclock-
wise for a light load and a smooth road
condition.
