I have my fronts set to the second softest setting, world of difference. I used channel locks and a rag.

The front are simple and straight forward, only one adjustment that takes 2 minutes. The rear is a little more complicated( more adjustments) and I don't know any thing about that.

it's at the bottom of the spring. mine were factory set at one notch down from the hardest setting.
