On my Comp Eng race shocks you fully compress the shock then turn the rod clockwise and it clicks to the next setting

I have seen the instructions for adjustable shocks somewhere. Might have been the manufacturers web site or the Summit web site?

yeah neil your right, they dont, been on summits site and according to their listing the ones i have are non adjustable, i wonder if going to a 60 profile might help? i really dont wany to go back to any thing smaller but might have to yet, also dont want to go down the air shock route either, bye for now, trev

I thought you had 60 profile already?

What you need are some blingin 17"wheels with them rubber band 40 profiles

But it only rubs one side! I know what I would do. Center the axle.

hi neil yep your right i do have 60 profiles on allready! guess that ones out then.
dave i think this will probably be the way to go, but my time has been cut short, i got a brown letter on saturday letting me know i am going back to iraq for another tour

only got 8 weeks left so i am gonna find it hard fitting everything in, so for now i might just put my smaller tyres back on, or get some air shocks, then next year do it properly, i will still be going to the nats though

who sells air shocks anyway?

hi mo, will do, glad it's gonna be over the winter so i dont loose too much mopar time!

neil , phoned us auto ?223 all in, but the guy was honest and said he didnt recommend them as they bleed down, looks like smaller tyres for now i think! still very undecided

found a place in the states that does monroe air shocks for $70 a pair!

now wondering if the back spacing is wrong??? must get the wheels off to measure.
