4-Way Small Tire Tuning Guide
This tuning guide is intended for use with Reaper Suspension’s 4-Way shock for a 275 or 315 radial tire application.
4-Way Adjustment Basics
- All adjustments should be made from full tight (fully clockwise) on both high speed (HSC) and low speed (LSC) compression and high speed (HSR) and low speed (LSR) rebound/extension.
- Both the HSC and LSC adjusters will be located on the compression head near the canister, while the HSR adjustments will be located on the rod guide and the LSR adjuster will be located on the shaft. This is true no matter the orientation of your shock.
- Make shock adjustments in small increments (two or three clicks) per pass.
- HSC, LSC, and HSR use a 9/64” Allen key. NOTE: Once the adjuster stops, there is no more adjustment available—do not force the adjuster to turn, as you will damage the shock.
Baseline Settings (Starting/Reset Point)
- High Speed Compression (HSC): 5 clicks from full tight
- Low Speed Compression (LSC): 6 clicks from full tight
- High Speed Rebound (HSR): 8 clicks from full tight
- Low Speed Rebound (LSR): 12 clicks from full tight
Track Condition Recommended Adjustments

| Hot / Greasy Track | 3HSC | 4–5LSC | 10HSR | 10–11LSR |
