The way I set mine up is with the car race ready, gas, oil etc and with the driver weight in car, adjust both bars at the same time until the bolt just touches the springs. Then put a 1/2 turn in both bars. I use this on a footbrake automatic car. If it pulls slightly one way or the other then put a slight more or less turn in one bar. But, I have not had to do that. I use the top hole it hits the tire harder than the bottom hole for me. But, every car is different you have to see for yourself. Lastly start with the shocks in the middle setting and work your way stiffer, for good tracks and looser for tracks that are going away. This is just a base line to get started.
