Default A few people have them. They work like a charm and they're comfortable to drive on...

Set it to 1 for the highest damping or stiffest ride and 9 for the lowest damping or most comfort level. Pitch and roll are reduced to minimal amounts.

Default Yes, and they are teriffic. We were making suspension adjustments between runs.

The adjustability gave us the ability to dial out some of the plowing by stiffing the the rear.

If you are going to do any suspension mods, I stress getting the PSS9's. It's an added tool you can work with.

For example, when I put on the Neuspeed rear sway bar, I felt the car had too much oversteer for daily driving. So I just made two clicks on the rear and dialed out some of the oversteer.

Default Mine just arrived. The one question I have is...

... where to set the spring adjusters initially to get close to a 1 to 1.2 inch drop from stock. How far down the threaded portion of the struct should I set the spring base adjuster and on the rear how far up on the threaded cup should I set the spring base adjuster?

Would like to get in the ballpark as I assemble them so I don't have much to adjust once they are installed.

thanks, Curt

Default Leave 1 to 1.125 inches between where the threads end to the bottom of the adjuster on the front...

shocks and about 0.75 to 1.0 inch between the rear perch threads and adjuster depending if you have one or two adjusters on each side,
