How to tune a shock

[lurchy]

Could someone please share with me how to tune my shocks

depends on your shock

Also depends on what type of driving your doing. I race a sc10 short course and that's completely different then my wraith. I feel it's more of a personal feel of how they react to what you put them through and track conditions. Tuning race shocks can be a pain in the ass, between the oil, springs and valves. Then ride heights come to play also. I know this doesn't help that much but do some more searching and reading, I'm sure someone has a base line settings to start out at.

I run g-made piggyback 103 mm setup for trail and crawling only

Soft . Would be nice if they sagged mid stroke at ride height

I ordered the soft springs and 20wt oil going to setup with four hole piston to start

Springs should match the shock oils action..

Tuning is trial and error. 30wt and whatever springs the come with will give you a starting point.

I've found 30wt to work well for crawling on a few difrent shocks

The screw on the piggy back is the adjustment on them shocks but I can't get a big diff on it rether it's all the way in or out
