| < Off Road Go Kart & Mini Buggy Discussion ~ Question about suspension on Hammer Head 250SS. |

I have a couple of suspension questions about my HH250.
1. I see how to adjust the front shocks, but how do I adjust the rear shocks?
2. Right now my fronts are all the way down which has been causing me to bottom out. How much different as far as stiffnes if I raise them all the way up?
3. Any guidlines or suggestions for adjusting the suspension on these buggys?

The adjustments are for ride height, not stiffness. Since I often have 2 adults in mine, I have the front on the highest and don't bottom out as much. I would at least have it in the middle, personally. As for the rear, I had the same question... And ended up just using the two nuts at the top to move the whole assembly to where I wanted it (highest riding height), there wasn't alot of adjustment there.. but I did get some.
Hope that helps!

I think they are like my 250, there are 2 nuts on the top of the shock, loosen the top one and turn the bottom one, it was a pain on mine _________________ Blade buggies,Carter buggy's, ams (manco) , joyner, parts for almost anything

Thanks for the input guys. I did just what you suggested with the rear nuts and have the front ones second to the top. Worked out great. Thanks for the replies.

Get some taller tires in the front too. That would help the bottoming out issue. I have taller ones in the rear, but I havn't upgraded the fronts yet. I used to bottom out all the time in back, but not as much now. Can't wait to upgrade the fronts! I just wish these HH's had more travel.
