download the PDF.

Like I said in my first post FULL clockwise is FULL stiff meaning setting 0 (zero)

0 full stiff to 16 full soft. (where are you getting 27? did you read what i said about possible damage to shock going pst 16 too many times?)

start from FULL clock then go CCW.

NP. Just DL the pdf file and read it. It has the reference settings, recommended measurements, and part numbers for the CO's.

Where did you hear this from?

If you read the instruction manual yes you could keep going past 16 but you run the risk of damaging the shock. I confirmed it with the tech long ago when I got my CO's. Then again it's not my CO's so feel free to do whatever you want to.

In caution area under adjusting force damping....


"Use only levels 1-16........., if the spring used are harder than the standard set, adjust at a harder setting."

I think you may have understood it wrong. Either way if the OP has questions he can call TEIN himself and clarify what is meant. I mean, it clearly states to use only 1-16 settings.
