Hi all ive been & cleaned my DHX5 & ive got a problem i dont know what & how to set it up..DOH!!!

i am 18 Stone & the bike runs sweet BUT i cannot get my head around setting up the coil as its on the shock but they seems to be play on the bracket to the shock & i know its not the shock or the "Bushes" as there new so i think its the setting up of the shock/coil where should the coil be positioned & how much AIR do i need oh & do i put air inside the shock then try to set it up or the other way around..?? ive been on Fox's website & i couldnt get my head around it..Double DOH

Thankx guys!!!

    first have you got the correct spring?

    have you downloaded the manual?

    air is only for the pedalling "feel" minimum of 75psi.

    what is the bike?
