Getting Started:

The 8300 series shocks come set from the factory at a pre set adjuster setting ready to bolt on your

vehicle. They dyno graph supplied will show you full adjustment range and where they are currently set.

We will typically try and set the shocks at a mid setting so you can adjust them either stiffer or softer

depending on your feel.

Adjusters:

Compression Adjuster- This is the knob that is located on the remote or piggy back canister. This will

generally have 40 clicks of compression. If instead of a knob, you have a ½” hex head, you will have 20

clicks of compression adjustment. On your dyno sheet, you should see about 175lbs-200lbs of total

compression adjustment. On both adjuster types, clockwise is stiffer, counter clockwise is softer.
