For springs I used 30lb front and 20lb rear.

hey guys, another newbie question for you;
is there supposed to be a white O-ring that sits at the base of the top threads of the shock? (where the top cap would thread down to) I purchased my kit pre-assembled, and am suspect if these were assembled correctly. I'm thinking that these white O-rings might actually be for the spring preload adjusters....
thanks again.
