THE PERFECT FIT
Rear Suspension Adjustments
Shock Compression Valving
Standard Rear Track Shock
The standard RMK rear track shock is an
Arvin MPV Select shock that allows for
adjustments to the compression valving.
Adjustments are made by turning the
adjustment screw located near the base of
the shock. In half-turn increments:
• Turn the screw clockwise for a stiffer
ride.
• Turn the screw counterclockwise for a
softer ride.
If bottoming continues after the screw has
been turned fully clockwise, the torsion
spring should be adjusted (see page 44).
Return the screw to its original starting
position after the torsion spring has been
adjusted.
ASSAULT Rear Track Shock
Turn the adjustment knob on the shock
reservoir to make adjustments to the com-
pression damping. When adjusting, we
recommend that you turn the adjuster
slightly, then test ride.
• Turn the knob clockwise for a stiffer
ride.
• Turn the knob counterclockwise for a
softer ride.
