Nope. No adjustability.

The shocks are fine and the overall ride is fine. Just took wife and our girls up to Top Golf in Ashburn. Wife commented on the smooth ride. My mind just plays tricks on me sometimes because I get **** about my vehicles.

That's good to hear. My '08 is a few hundred miles from hitting 140k and I've got reasonably new shocks, brand new tires, new control arms/ball joints, reasonably new brakes.

I'm sitting tight and getting over my head (brain) issues. lol

After driving to and from the vacation spot 300 miles away, I'm here to tell you that my KYB shocks LOVE a fully-loaded vehicle more than a sparsely-loaded one. Not ready to get rid of them, but the heavier the rig the more they shine.

i'm near 120k and feel like i need some bushings replaced, but i do not know where to start. i've replaced the shocks/stuts and sway bar f/r bushings, but i'm sure there the control arm bushings and..... should be next?
