I concur with what BlackHawk said, well everyone for that matter. I wasted $14 on a shock adjustment tool (spanner wrench) and the design of the DS makes it very difficult to get to the locking nuts, even after cutting several inches from the handle. Still a tight fit with the hammer and screwdriver/punch method but it can be done. If you've never loosened them before you will not be able to turn the spring by hand to move the nut.
If I'm not mistaken the adjustment should be for 3 inches from suspension fully extended to you with your gear on the bike. That may all be personal preference depending on your riding style and terrain.

 

I talked to my dealer too. He told me to use a large size water pump pliers. I'll get er' done tonight! What does everyone think, 3 inches of sag once I'm sitting on it? 4"? A little guidence would be great! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

I read that page last night. It was a big help. I did adjust my sag when I got home from work. Right now when I sit on it, it goes down 4" Does that sound about right? Thanks for <u>EVERYONE'S</u> help! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
