kilabreeze0 yes i just tightened the huge nut (spanner) on the very top of the shock, then when i got that adjusted to where i want it then i tightened down the lock nut for that nut, then i whent to the very bottom of the shock (its hiding inbetween the swinger where the shock mounted on at) and there was a small plastic dial with the numbers 1-4 on and 1 at the softest and 4 at the hardest so then i set it at the 4 mark, i got it just the way i like it now, and i am not replacing any seals at all on the shock either.
