KWs purchased and installed

Mine arrived yesterday but I have family arriving friday, so my install won't happen for 2 weeks. Keep us updated as to your success in adjusting for your type of driving. Don't get discouraged.

I haven't had my alignment done yet, but I have been messing w/ the dampening......

After adjusting only the front end, you can really tell the quality of the KW product. Unfortunately I haven't been able to mess w/ the rear yet b/c I need to take out my system first, but I am confident that once I am able to tweek this sucker to my liking, it should be fantastic.

Anyone who has adjusted their KWs to their liking, can you post your settings starting from all the way negative? Fatchance????

I think I like my front somewhere between 2-3 full turns towards positive, but I can't really be too sure until I am able to get my alignment and able to adjust the rear.....

Was the info in post #15 not helpful, Mike?

That's where I'll be setting mine tomorrow.

Also, have you not seen Hennessey's recommendations, posted in direct response to your initial complaints here?

It appears to me we have plenty of info for an outstanding initial setup.

1) The info in post #15 was great. But anyone who draws a conclusion from a sample size of 1 is an idiot. I’m trying to get an aggregate perspective.

2) Yes I have seen Hennessey's recommendations and his expertice is much appreciated. In fact, he says to set the dampening in the middle and NOT mess w/ it unless you are experienced. But if I am going to spend 2k on an upgrade and it gives me the flexiblity to adjust to my liking, then you better believe that I'm going to adjust, adjust, adjust until I think it's perfect.

3) We do have plenty of info for an initial setup, but I am past the initial setup. I am now trying to adjust my setup to perfection.

Thanks for your input...

What is the recommendation for the alignment? Should you start at 0 negative, have the alignment done then dial it in to your liking, or is it best to dial it in to your liking, then do the alignment?

I would imagine that it doesn't matter since changing the ride height is the reason the alignment is needed...Plus, it says that you aren't supposed to drive w/ it dialed all the way negative or positive.....
