Default Stock shocks?

Are they adjustable? If so how?
Thanks for any input.

Default RE: Stock shocks?

Look at the bottom of the shocks. There should be 5 numbers there with a small black indicator showing your setting. The holes located on that bottom piece are for a shock adjuster tool to move the settings. If you have some good gloves with some grip, you can turn them by hand. The higher numbers should stiffen the shocks. Good luck. Oh compressing the shock increases the pre-load.

Invest in a manual.
