I have the AGX's coupled with Progress Springs, except I forgot what I had the shocks set at. And now when I reach under there to try to adjust the ***** I can't even find them. Do you have to take the wheels off to get to the adjusting dial?

to change the rears, yea you need to take of the wheels... fronts as you probably know, you adjust with the tiny screwdriver they provided.. make those changes under the hood, there's a little place to put the screwdriver in to turn the dial

I have 4/8 on sprints. what is the point of keeping it hard on normal street driving, and my gf refuses to ride with me if they are on 1/1

you guys know that they are not supposed to be dropped past 2 inches, otherwise they start leaking, and wear out like in a year. You need something like koni yellows to keep the ride good and drop far.

4/8 would be the harshest setting, i cant stand the firmest settings on the roads around here, makes me want to shoot myself.
