1. When tightening the bolt on op of the strut, how do you know when it's on there tight enough?

2. How do you know what level the strut is on(1-5)? And how do you adjust them properly?

-thanks

adjust the illumina's shock setting by turning the knob with a flat head screwdriver. on the knob u should see two white marks, which will point to a vertical line directly opposit the number setting. not to sound mean but the illumina install instructions would be more helpful. good luck btw

EDIT: don't lose the red cap with the numbers marked on it, its the only way you'll be able to adjust the shock.

the nut on top of the strut is a self locking nut... just tighten it until it is tight... i think the torque spec for it is on corbin's writeup, off hand, prolly 12lbs of torque...

mine actually loosened up a lil, so i retightened them.... just turn the wrench til its tight, then go an extra 1/2 rotation or so emoji

good luck,
