How to tighten Rear 5 way adjustable shocks?
Ive been rubbing alot after putting my spacers even after i rolled the fenders. so i decided it was worth it just to tighten the suspension, i have 5-way adjustable shocks and the front ones were easy to find sitting right under the hood. Im having some trouble finding the ones in the rear if anyone knows where they are and maybe has a diagram or something it would be very helpful

OP, search is your friend. The easiest way to adjust them is to open up the plastic rear strut bar and drill a hole there to access the top of the shocks. It's been done many times before and you can easily find a thread that walks you through it. Otherwise, you'll have to take the whole shock out and adjust it from there.
AdvanZ33, my rear tires are rubbing as well and initially I thought the solution would be to stiffen up my rear suspension. I'm running a springs + adjustable shocks setup, so are you saying that shock stiffening won't really help me out? Will I need to purchase stiffer springs?
