I assume you ordered springs according to there calculator on their website? Double rate? I run 2 springs on mine. Basically I started by letting the axle hang at full droop and adjusted the springs for no slop. There should be a thin collar that rides inside the springs on the housing that the spring divider stops against. That one I set just a couple inches higher than the collar sits when at rest. You will want to adjust that collar after driving it. I have a set of 100lb springs if you need to play around with the rates. I dont mess with the pressures much, just set it at their recomended pressure.

That helps a lot and makes since.

Yea, they dont really send directions with the shocks. The collar is a limiting stop for your softer springs and forces the stiffer springs to be used. Are those 2.5s?

No just 2.0s they said 2.5s would be way overkill for my toy. Hope they are right, but hey they are the experts. I think they will be just fine though.
