? for dustbuster or other kyb owners
How do the settings work on the front and rear shocks. My front is set to 2 in the front and I have no clue about the rear. Hard to get under there. Which way do u twist the rear to stiffen / soften?

I just looked at mine. You can actually lay down and slide your head behing your rear tire. You can get to them that way. They are facing the rear of the car. Clockwise stiffens them and counterclockwise loosens them. Check it out.

The front are easy to adjust.....using the little yellow screw driver KYB gave u you have to shift the strut bar to get to one of them. But the rears are a little tricky.............You have to jack the car up.....at least i do.
1 =softest setting 8 being the stiffest.
I have mine at 3F 2 rear and it rides like a dream.

There should have been a small screwdriver with each front shock, but any small screwdriver will work.

Man, I set the front to 3 and the back to 6 and that is one stiff ride. Atlanta's roads are not exactly plates of smooth glass. I think I'll go with a 2 in front and 4 in rear Love the setup though, might burn the kumhos too quick
