me...!  I really do need to start learning about this stuff!  :-)


Never loose the adjusting cap! They were kind enough to print on it which
way to turn for firm and which way was soft. The instructions say to turn it
a full turn from fill firm. Tighten the cap until it stops, them back off
one turn. I usually back them out 1/2 turn. Ive been told by some older
racers that you can put them as firm as they will go without any problems.
The instructions say that just in case you happen to blow the seals. Legal
smegal stuff.
To go full soft, turn the cap all the way in the other direction. Until it
hits the full soft stop. You cant unscrew them all the way so there is no
problem with accidentally dissasembing them. 
There is about 3 full turns they will adjust so you just gotta play with it
and find the settings that work best for you, and your kidneys!
