Well darn, there is one now. So now I will complete the post. The answer to my question, as I suspected was quite simple....just try adjusting the shocks and see how they look. Here are three photos. The first shows the Hagons as they were shipped...set to the softest ride. The second shows one turn of the adjuster. The third shows the third and last adjustment to the stiffest ride. The wrench came with them.
