Originally posted by kingofvenus View PostI'd back the preload off a quarter of an inch of so, and see what the sag comes out at. Can always crank it back up some if needed. Was told that it was an off the shelf unit, and that with my weight and mostly solo riding, the spring on it would be fine. The black allen-head screw on the side of the bottom of it is for rebound and compression dampening, it's a linked system. Was told after you adjust it, it's supposed to take a few piston cycles (a longer ride) for it to change, i'd ride it first before changing the dampening any.
Dee, was there any other hardware or installation instructions?

I've found those adjustments are never accessible while on the bike, and once it's off it's easy enough to throw it in the vice and use some large pliers to adjust it.
