KW V2 rear dampening adjustment?

jbeemer13 · 03-24-2015, 06:40 PM

Quick question for you guys who are running KWs. I recently got KWv2s installed by my local shop. The shop set the height and dampening for me. But I wanted to play around a little with the dampening. I know I can adjust the front if I pop open the hood. However I have no clue how to do the rears. Does anyone know if there is a easy way to adjust?

You adjust the dampening on the top of the damper, and as you say that's easy in the front, but more job in the rear.

I've got the KWv3 myself, but I haven't adjusted the dampening in the rear yet, but I believe it's easiest to actually remove the speakers and get access to the top of the dampers that way.
