Here are several links that I think will prove useful, Mark.

Sag Set-up

Suspension Tuning Guide

Suspension Setup

Suspension Guide

Hope these help. Let the .org know about your findings. Knowledge shared is a good thing.

Thanks RaggedEdge,
I am going to go home tonight and try some of these.
From what I am reading, Once I have determined the measurements unloaded I don't need to do this again. I can just use it at the track for reference.

Update:
I read all the articals. Thanks to all.
I tried to set the front sag and...
I had to crank down all the way, I thought somthing was wrong. So I took it SpeedShop Santa Cruz. Nothing wrong.
The springs are too soft.
Soo I need to go See Dan Kyle for new springs and revalving.

Soo Buy more Raffel tickets!!!
