THE PERFECT FIT
IQ Front Suspension Adjustments
Shock Valving (Switchback)
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 springs can be changed if spring preload alone isn’t sufficient
and further adjustment is desired to control suspension stiffness. See
your Polaris dealer for more information.
