How do you adjust progressive 944 shocks?
Just picked up a used set on Craigs, and want to zero them out. Can't find the directions on progressive site.

Twist the collar at the top end of the shock.

go to youtube and search adjusting progressive shocks, there are several videos there, I couldn't figure out how to attach a link.

Installed...going for a ride shortly.
I assume if the color is adjusted towards the sky that minimizes preload? Am I right?

Correct. Just installed a new set, no ride time with them yet though.

Awesome....thanks. These are the HD ones so I'm a little concerned of being too firm, but I weigh 250 and the woman weighs 120 so we'll see.

Post up your results!! I also went with the HD, judging by the initial bounce checking sag i'm almost at minimum preload for the springs. But I like a firmer ride so should be ok.
