I have and have the rear at max now as is the front and the front still
has too much brake dive. I believe my Interstate setting is 6 clicks
from max on the rear and 1.5 turns out on the front.

There is an adjustment screw that clicks every HALF turn. Two clicks equal ONE TURN. (Also, Read your Owner's Manual, all of this info is in there!)
