those are triple rates, and to adjust the softness on them u have to screw the big nut above the first spring down for stiffer up for softer

Ya hes right! Those are triple rate not double. Only there is no nut to adjust on top. You have to compress the spring and MOVE the wire clip that goes in the groove either up or down. At least that is the way mine are and mine are exactly like those only with rezzys.

thast how u do it... mine are like that too and they are dual rates w/o rezzys. it makes it easier if u put the front end of the quad up on jacks.
