Adjustment Range: COMPRESSION (20 Clicks)
The adjustment range of the compression adjuster works primarily in the low-speed area of the velocity
spectrum. This is from 0-2 in/sec in strut velocity. Testing has shown that this is the area where
transients to the chassis can be tuned depending on driver preference and down-track aero
performance. These adjusters are very driver sensitive, so 2 clicks, sometimes 1 click driver will feel.
Remember the adjustment range is completely dependent on what forces your main piston and shim
stacks are producing. For instance, the build above is:
• Piston- 1°2° High Flow
•
Compression Stack- C
• Rebound Stack – D
If you valve your strut with a stiffer shim stack, your will have a greater adjustment range.
