Hello all, I know a good amount of people in this forums use MEGAN RACE SUSPENSIONS.

Ok, While I was reading the instructions, it said, "DO NOT TURN THE KNOB BELOW THE LAST SETTING AS YOU MAY DAMANGE THE DAMPER!"

Yea... I know its suppose to be "DAMAGE" but it's typed "DAMANGE" in there instruction papers...

How are you suppose to know what setting you're on unless you either set the damper to SOFTEST OR HARDEST? Without hitting the last setting?

Confused... :aw: :aw: :aw: :aw: :aw: :aw:

wow. count??????????????????

How do know you which setting you on in the first place? Without going all the way to the END? (WHICH IF YOU DO GO TO THE END IT MAY DAMANGE (DAMAGE) THE DAMPERS)

its BELOW THE LAST SETTING - not TO THE LAST SETTING... pretty much it means - dont force the knob farther than it goes.

It probally means to not turn it past the set amount of clicks. Not sure how many megan coilovers have. Usually you adjust it counterclockwise as the lowest setting. Then turn it clockwise to adjust it higher.


edit: Just found out that megas is 32 way. I seriously doubt you will feel a difference between one click. Just dont go past 32 clicks.

it means do not overturn the knob you could turn the knob all the way to the end after you do that turn it back 1/4. best way to do this is to use a marker and mark the knob and place it in the stock remmeber were the mark is at and count the full turn from the start point of the mark you made on the knob.after you do that you would know how may turns you can make till you bottom out. start by putting it on the softs setting and adjust to your liking.one thing with magen is that if you ride then hard they don't last very long also be careful with holes and speed bumps. i hope this helps you and good luck with you setup.

Thank you very much... yes I did end up turning it all the way to the end and back 1/4 marking it "32"... which is the softest setting in these. Pretty much just placed it in the first solid click...


I gave everyone good rep+ Thank you all!!

LOL - none of you have coilovers!!?? - i know krazy with a K-pants and myself have coilovers.

i dont have megans - does it actually click 32 times? A lot of the low end stuff are claiming a lot of damping adjustment - but i question the amount of difference from full hard to full soft.

umm, yes i have coilovers.

I wouldnt think anyone would be that stupid to force the knob either but then agian you probably wouldnt believe a lot of the stupid things a 16 yr old emo kids do nowadays. @_@

i have ksport coil overs there similer to magen so setup wise i have a 2 1/2 in. drop and my damper setup is medium hard (2 full turns) in the rear and medium soft( 1 3/4 turns) in the front. that setup for me is good for street and track.
