I have adj shocks and struts all the way around but dont know how to play with them.. ok.ok. **** that you turn right or left.., i get that much but i just dont wanna turn ***** without knowing what iam doing. Can anyone help. My parts are all in my sig. I dont do track days., i dont run at the drags but want just a good pre-set for my suspension for the street.

Take a peek at KYB AGX adjustment and Tokico shocks/struts

On a COMPLETELY unrelated side note, I see you have Steeda upper/lower control arms. Do you have a link as to which ones you have and what kind of driving do you do?

Thanks for the help Mr Jazzer..!! I wil check those links.
As for my rear control arms i have some cheapies that i thought where steeda but they are not, they are these. Im planning on changing them for some different ones.., I know this wont happen but i want some that are good for launches and cornering!

No.... no..... no... please do NOT get those rear control arms

My concern is NOT the manufacturer, but rather the design of poly/poly bushed solid arms. Take a look at The Official Suspension Guide (sticky on this section and in my sig). Look for the section on control arms and will see why I feel VERY strongly on this particular issue
