Crusader Shocks offer 19 positions of evenly spaced adjustments, the zero position and 18 distinctive clicks. The rebound valving, however, is a progressive valve that is strictly determined via orifice control. A progressive valve shock will have a softer low speed force that ramps up very quickly as shaft speed increases. Do not let the definition fool you, as these shocks can generate huge forces at low speeds depending on the needle and seat combination. In fact, the Crusader™ shock absorbers produces forces far greater than nearly all other shock absorbers on the market. The rebound side has 22 available positions of adjustments, the zero position and 21 distinctive clicks. As a result, the Crusader™ line provides for 418 different valving combinations. This needle and seat combination allows for a very large adjustment range.

To use these Viking Rear Shocks for your 05 – 14 Mustang, simply install them as per the vehicle’s instructions. Make sure they are properly aligned with your car’s suspension system. When it comes to adjustment, since it doesn’t require special tools, you can easily change the settings according to your driving needs. For a drag race application, adjust the rebound and compression settings to suit your car’s power (less than 600HP) and tire size. Keep in mind that the progressive valve on the rebound side has unique characteristics. Don’t be misled by its soft low – speed force, as it can generate substantial power as the shaft speed increases. Regularly check the shocks for any signs of wear, like leaks or unusual noises. If you notice anything off, it’s a good idea to have them inspected by a professional. Also, make sure to clean the shocks occasionally to keep them in good working condition.
