What do you mean by "can't get the rebound to work"? Is the suspension not returning up when you compress it down, or are you not able to turn your rebound adjustment knob?

the suspension doesnt rebound back when i compress the shocks, i adjusted the knobs several different ways including with the rebound all the way up.

When you filled the chambers do you have the atv sitting off of the ground? You need to have at least the weight of the front end off of the four-wheeler, so that the shocks are fully extended. Then set your Evol chamber pressure followed by the main chamber pressure.

I know mine seemed a little funny at first putting them on, but once they settled after moving it around and taking a spin down the driveway they were good.

Check how tight you have the shock and a-arm bolts, it could be binding the suspension up

Check the order that you fill the chambers, it is important
