pull the shock off. there should be some sort of lip that holds the spring on the shock. take it off,and compress the spring. add some washers.MORE=STIFFER. put it all together again.this is how u would normally do it but i would take a better look at the shock first incase im wrong.

I'll let you know how it goes, I just came inside the house to take a break from strippin' down the Spree. Now I'm lookin' for the digital camera so I can take pictures of everything and post it on my website.

I pulled off the shock and twisted it and it seemed to have gotten tighter. Thanks for that bit of advise.

Haha, riding your spree offroad is fun. But cleanup is quite the pain. I had to take it apart and clean the rear fender because i had it so caked up when i drove it dried the mud into this big dry dirt clod and it started to take tire with it. But i got my spree about to 20-25 off road, it was a smoother stretch tho. But mudding is a bad idea :o lol

* ya it is especially when your back tire is bald. I'm not sure if you've heard or not, but AZ just got a s*** load of rain which = a s*** load of mud, n e ways, I was riding along just fine and then without warning, the back end just slid out from underneath me. I about s*** myself. Riding Sprees on wet grass is fun though.

The only time when you are going to get a spree to burn out----wet grass.
