Default kyb agx adjustment question

Wsup.I just got my shocks installed on my lude.I wasn't there when it was installed so I don't know how to adjust the rear suspension. where do I adjust the firmness of the rear shocks? Do I need to jack the car up or something? which way do you turn the ****? for example if I the shocks are on 4 do I go counter clockwise to get to 1 or do I go clockwise?

thx.

The very top of the strut tower has a numbered dial on it. It turns with the flat head screw driver that came with your struts. Turn the dial to the desired stiffness.

1 = lowest
4 = highest

I don't think the way you turn it matters if I remember correctly. You do need to make sure that you first push down then turn to the adjustment you want.

As for the trunk lining, there's no need to remove it. Just pull back the corner under each speaker (for a 5th gen).
