wrench for tighten oem shocks?

[sunco]

What wrench do you use to tighten the shocks. I used a channel lock for the front but I can't get anything on the rear. Do I have to take it out & adjust it?

Put the quad on a stand or something to get the weight off the rear tires, and use a hammer and punch to loosen the top (jam) nut and then adjust the bottom nut the same way. It worked well for me, just kinda slow.
