You would obviously have the spring perch on the lowest compression setting?
Billys are known to have a firm ride as opposed to others what ever they are fitted on but it sounds like yours are firm,are you following the bumps or just bouncing over them?

Have included pic of mine to show how adjustment sets in the notches on the shock body,presume yours are the same,cheers
