| Post subject: | Spring tension adjustment. |
I just bought the T4 and got it completely built. Starting now to set it up. My question is this: What is the correct way to adjust the aluminum cap on the shock body? Do I adjust it until it places tension on the spring or should I adjust it some what tighter then that. I am using the springs that came with the kit. Thanking you in advance concerning this question. DPL |

the collars adjust ride hight only not spring tension. you need different springs for that but most people are using 2.7 front 2.5 rear |

The preload directly affects chassis ride height. A good starting point for ride height with 62mm big rubber tires is 5mm front and 5.3mm rear. The spring should have some tension on it with this setting but not a lot. The rear spring can be free and even have play if you use a lot of droop and when unloaded. |
