Default what should i set my shocks for

What should i do with my shocks i do alot of jumps but then again i fly over bumps and i usally hit them f*cking hard. i though of makeing my front hard so it wouldnt bottom out as much and makeing my back softer for going over bumps. my back doesnt bottom out when i jump, and wheni fly over bumps the back end wants to come up


BTW- i have a raptor 2002

Any information would help.

On the front try all the way stiff. That kept mine from bottoming as bad on jumps and it reduces roll in corners a little bit

For the rear, if the back end feels like it is getting kicked up over whoops, I think you probably need to reduce your rebound damping. That will keep your shock from packing up and trying to toss you over the bars.

Anyone else have more suggestions?
