you have to push the metel rod all the way down and turn left to soften the shock

and right to make it firmer

I thought reds were n/a, only the yellow sports were adjustable

ok...i pushed the metal rod all the way down...and then i twisted the whole shock to the left...but it just keeps turning and turning....i feel no tension whatsoever...am i doing this correctly? or is it suppose to feel like that?

well what i did was put the shock in a vice,clamp it then depress the shock then turn
it should turn cant remeber if i felt pressure but if your doing it right once you turn it all the the way left or right it should stop

oh and always do 2 shocks at once to evenly adjust the shocks

The reds are just not externally adjustable like the Yellows.
