    i have SA's with 3 damping settings in the rear. I'm positive ive heard of other people on this forum who have the same shocks as I do, but i guess they arent as common as i thought.
    Your's sound slightly different from mine Matt. Mine don't have PRESET levels. You select your own range. Mine are single adj. too and all I do is take out the little white ring, my excuse of a custom bump stop and just twist away.

      so you can't finely adjust them, it's just three presets? they must be older, unless they're just a completely different shock.

      I don't even remove the rear wheels to adjust mine.. I just back up onto a set of ramps, unbol them from the bottom, adjust and reassemble :)

      I can see the exhaust getting in the way of some of the lower cars with that method though.

        yeah just 3 settings, i guess i must have an older set although they were purchased less than 2yrs ago.
