We are now offering Standard, Split and Half valve shocks in our popular RS-Junior line. To assist you in making the best tuning adjustments possible we have created this tuning guide. Depending on the severity of the condition valving adjustments should be done in half to full valve increments. Shock absorbers are a fine tuning device. The balance of the car and the drivers line should be consistent before making any shock changes.
