From the minimum or factory positions, there are 12 possible sweeps of adjustment ( 1 sweep equals 1/4 turn).



Turn screw from left to right to increase compression forces (clockwise)Compression - Insert a screwdriver into the lower adjustment device (figure 2). Turning the screw driver from left to right (clockwise) will cause the forces to increase. From the minimum or factory positions, there are 12 possible "clicks" of adjustment.

Base line start with 7 swipes from loose on top and 4 clicks from loose on bottom… top setting is extension or (rebound) bottom setting is compression. When track is slick you want to tighten the bottom 2 clicks and loosen the top 2 swipes - on a good track just the opposite.

Hey Herbie !

This is interesting .. One of these is wrong .... As the above video says just the opposite of what you posted. You would think with the mammoth amount of money these pro mods,top sportsman, pro stock style cars put into their cars and shock packages , they would know the fundamentals pretty good for the geometry of 4 link and shock adjustments ..
