at the top of the shock mainbody, there is a small slot. In that slot, you will see a round disk with a couple holes in it. Stick a small allen wrench in there and turn the disk.

Koni SAs on the front are adjusted with sweeps.

You will need to make the adjustment through the spring with the wheel off, but yes, the adjustment is at the top of shock body and adjusts with sweeps. It's always best to start from the beginning and count up so you know what setting you're at.

There is no **** for the front. Use an allen wrench and the pictures above.

What he said, except you don't have to take the wheel off if car is jacked up. You can go over wheel.

Rebound - Insert a pin into the slotted adjuster located at the top eye (figure 1). Moving the pin from left to right (counterclockwise) will cause the forces to increase. From the minimum or factory positions, there are 12 possible sweeps of adjustment ( 1 sweep equals 1/4 turn).
