Say no to front sway bar

[meltdowner]

Dang...I roll with mine on the street at F-6 R-8 with both front and rear sways. But...I like to drive like a sports car on and off road. Off road I go F=2 R-3. Softens up the ride but still provides some good control. I tried taking the sway off before and didn't like it. Maybe I'll try it again to see how it is now that I have the adjustable fronts. I didn't before.

Would you mind elaborating on what F=2 and R -3 means?

Most higher end shocks come with an option for valve adjustment on the compression side of the shock travel. MOST of these adjustments are done by turning dials with specific detents. On King shocks for example, 0 “clicks” is the softest setting, while 22 or 23 (can’t remember off hand how high it goes) is the stiffest setting.

So he’s running 2 clicks above softest on the front shocks, and 3 clicks above softest on the rear.

I run 4 and 4 on the street currently. Still playing around with it.

Some shocks, like Fox, have an adjustment for low speed fine tuning and a larger one for high speed.

Some shocks have an adjustment for compression AND rebound, like the OME BP51 series.
