Default How to adjust kyb agx?

Hi guy, can someone help me, I installed kyb agx with my old h&r race spring. I keep it at stock and the ride is pretty bumpy like it go up and down. Would it be ok to put my stock oem spring on agx?. Can you guys recommend what setting should I adjusted so the ride will be smoot when go over something. and when adjusting, do I need to jack up the car or not? Thank you.

You can put your stock springs on the agx's. You do not need to jack the car up to adjust them either. Try (1) front and rear.

Use a small flathead on top of the shock shaft. Press down on the screw and turn 1/4 turn for each adjustment. 1 is pretty good for everyday driving.

race spring sucks for street surfaces anyways. Get rid of them and get H&R OE sport springs. It will give you about 1 inch drop all around. Stock springs are too high for my favor.

it's VERY important that you press down first and then turn
