Default Viking shocks question?

There are 2 adjustments on the Viking double adjustable shocks. 1. is rebound and I forgot the other one. Can someone tell me the difference between the two?

Compression? I've never had a shock like that, but its my guess.

As for the settings I think you need them to work with your spring rates and things like that. So the "suspension guys" on here can help you they will probably need more info.

Should be rebound and compression. A higher rebound allows a slower extending. A higher compression slows down how quickly the shock can compress.

Generally Viking shock boxes have instructional paper work in them. However in case you did not get any we keep it in our Help & How To Section. Midwest Chassis Help & How To
