The only way to achieve zero rebound, is to unscrew the bottom cap 3 turns and move the shaft down until the O ring comes out a little and starts too leak oil. I rebuilded my shocks yesterday, and I couldn't get less than 75% rebound with swollen bladders. When my bladders were still new, I could get around 50% rebound. I'll take them out after Q1 or Q2 and see if there's a difference.

I'll be racing my first race of the indoor season on sunday with the T4 on carpet and I have build my shocks with 10% rebound and 350 oil. The foams are still in the shocks. Forgot to take them on when I rebuilded them after testing.
