I went to AVO's website looking for information on these shocks on my SR3 but there is no radical specific listings.
I'm wondering if the fronts are adjustable, by the Allen key on the bottom perhaps?
Basically I'm looking for and information you know and can give me on what I have here.
Thanks!
The the silver ring in your second picture is the spring perch which is used to adjust preload and corner weighting. If there is some sort of set screw on that perch, it is probably used to prevent it from turning after adjustment; for adjustment loosen the set screw.
Consult your owner's manual for preload setting and chassis setup procedure. On my car, we adjust the preload to +4 turns from zero (without wheels mounted) on the front, and zero on the back as a starting point. For corner weighting, it is typical to adjust the back springs only in equal amounts on each side. This is the procedure when you do not have adjustable pushrods which is your case, otherwise the ride height and corner weighting adjustments are made in the pushrod length.
On your last photo on the bottom appears to be a damping (rebound) adjustment. Again, consult your manual. Typically add more damping in the front to slow the damper's extension (hold the nose down longer) after breaking as you turn in.
If you are unable to find a setup specification for your car, I suggest contacting Radical for guidance.

Thank you for the tips!
