Default Elkas - How To Adjust Rear Shock?

I just ordered a set of new elka shocks for my banshee. They're for my plus 2 forward 1 arms, and are valved for XC. They can do a little of everything I guess. Anyway, I weigh 200lbs and I want to adjust the rear shock, what's the best adjustment to match for the spring and how many clicks for a the stiffness?

I don't know anything about suspension, if I were you, i'd just send away your rear to get rebuilt/revalved. Thats what i'll be doing with mine soon. What kind of elkas you getting? trip rate? any rezzies? and where in bama do you live? i'm from georgia, if your interested in racing a gncc let me know, i'm "planning" on going to Tennessee at the end of the month for a gncc. I'd like to get a group together.

I'm about 20 minutes from gadsden, or about 15 minutes from lake guntersville,
what about you? I've never raced, but I'm sure I could run one, I know the shee could handle it. The elkas are dual rate, no rezzies. They'll do me just fine.

I think Elkas look awesome. I have works all around and I really like them, but elkas still look cool.
