well i went to try to adjust my susp. I wanted to adjust it by the shock travel but i could not figure out how to do it i searched on google and on ht but i got no answers,

i know what you guys must be thinking i know what im doing i just didnt pay alot of attention what i looked at them when i got them.

if anyone could help it would be appericated

thanks

 

Are you talking about how to adjust the dampening on it? If so, turning it counterclockwise is setting it to the softest, which is 1. Clockwise is stiffening it.

 

I think he's talking about the way to adjust the ride height without affecting the suspension travel. the Flex can do that, right?

 

yea it is dual tube but he said he wanted to adjust it via shock travel for some reason?

 

exactly adjust the ride height without affecting the suspension travel

sorry i just used bad wording

 

There should be a lower bracket holding the spring and another bracket underneath that for the actual shock.
Dont touch the spring bracket, loosen the lower bracket and turn the whole shock.

BTW-The stiffest setting is 1, which is all the way clockwise.
Then, start your count from there going counter-clockwise 2-3-4 etc.....which leads to its softest point, 16. Dont go past that.

thanks for all the help, please if you dont have something to add to the post DONT HATE !

 

Thats what i thought about the bracket i know how to adjust the coilovers, i just didnt want to start turning ****.

my boy told me that there is a bolt on the lower part that locks the shock in place so that it cannot move. i was looking for the bolt and just gave up i guess either it just not important or im just to lazy

hey dude I was being an oddball...you'll find I do that a lot and it gets me in trouble all the time I love you with all my heart.

 

there are 3 locks on the tube.. unlock the lowest of the 3 seat locks. It should be the one that is seated alone and right above the lower tube... then just grab the main casing and turn it and it will go up or down within that lower tube.

I dont know what bolt he is talking about because it locks with that lower bracket so it doesnt move.
I dont have any bolt but then again, my Flex are in an EP.
