[QUOTE="boxer1, post: 738020, member: 3133"] I had torn the front four link out and bent the front shock shafts my last trip out so I have been rebuilding that I finally got the bent shafts swapped out this weekend and adjusted all the shocks to a 50/50 setup. Hopefully I can get out in the next couple of weekends and see what the lighter rebound did. Still trying to wrap my head around adjusting rebound to address harsh ride. I understand that the rebound is forcing the shock out and a stiff rebound will make for a harsh ride but then what effects the compression side? Is it when dropping off a big ledge to keep it from bottoming out or when getting airborne/unloading the shocks it helps keep from bottoming out. I’m typically just rockcrawling and trail riding so nothing over 20 mph most of the time , so just trying to dial in a smooth ride over wash board and small rocks on the feeder trails and then soaking up the big rocks when crawling and not unloading when climbing big ledges and waterfalls.
