THE PERFECT FIT

IQ Front Suspension Adjustments

Shock Valving

The shocks can be revalved if spring preload alone isn't sufficient and

further adjustment is desired to control suspension stiffness.

WARNING! Changing shock valving requires special tools and a sound

knowledge of mechanical theory, tool use, and shop procedures to perform the

work safely and correctly. Shocks contain high-pressure nitrogen gas. Use

extreme caution when handling high-pressure service equipment. We

recommend that this work be performed by a Polaris dealer.

Front Springs

The front spring rates can be adjusted by changing the nitrogen pressure.

The upper chamber adjusts the main spring rate. The lower chamber

adjusts preload. See your Polaris dealer for more information.
