A little info on what our new DSC does,


The Dual Speed Compression (DSC) adjuster provides added control and comfort tuning for on-road use while also offering more aggressive damping for use off-road. The adjuster allows for precise suspension tuning with the simple twist of two clearly defined knobs: No tools and no mess, just a way to easily fine-tune your suspension to best suit your needs in any conditions. The DSC increases both low and high-speed compression levels up to 25%, allowing you to maximize small bump compliance and traction while still having the extra damping required for big hits.

LSC Adjustment Range
The Low Speed Compression (LSC) adjuster knob offers 10 clicks of adjustment and primarily affects compression damping during slow suspension movements such as G-outs or smooth jump landings. It also affects wheel traction and the harshness or plushness of the vehicle's ride.

HSC Adjustment Range
The High Speed Compression (HSC) adjuster knob offers 12 clicks of adjustment and mainly affects compression damping during medium to fast suspension movements such as steep jump faces, harsh flat landings, and aggressive wash board roads.

So is this just for internal bypass shocks or do you make this function for external bypass as well? Also, is this exclusively for the OE 2.5 or can you get it on the 3.0's?
One last question. For now. lol This isn't the same as the QAB is it?

I really wish the dsc was available for the external bypass shocks. Are the QAB's capable of similar adjust ability specs specific to velocity sensitivity?

QAB stands for Quick Adjusting By-Pass. The QAB works on EXTERNAL by-pass shocks (such as the 3.0 rears). Basically they are valves with knobs that allow you to adjust the rebound and compression settings using just your fingers instead of tools. They have a stop every quarter turn. So you count the stops instead of the turns.

DSC stands for Dual Speed Control. DSC controls the speed of the fluid from the shock body to the reservoir during the compression cycle on INTERNAL by-pass shocks (front coil overs).
