Shock question

Yes I know I have a lot of questions. When riding,especially up hills my son seems to be bouncing around alot I have the front shocks set on the second from the highest groove(that thing at the bottom of the shock with about 6 settings) and the rear is the same.Will lowering the settings keep him on the ground more? I have the fronts set high to keep him from bending another set of tie rods. we ride mostly desert sandy /rocky terrain. stock polaris scrambler shocks.

The stock shocks are worthless for anything other than riding around the yard IMO. If you keep an eye on ebay (or this website) you can find good deals on used aftermarket shocks. That's what I did.

Thank's.I guess he is just gonna have to bounce for awhile since I want to put new tires on,then I will worry about the shocks.
