FRONT/REAR SPRING PRELOAD ADJUSTMENT

The factory setting is appropriate for nearly all riding conditions. If desired, the suspension may be adjusted to maintain vehicle clearance height when carrying loads.
To adjust the preload, do the following:

  1. Elevate the vehicle to allow the suspension to fully extend.

  2. Turn the adjusting ring to the left to increase preload for a higher ride height. Turn the adjusting ring to the right to decrease preload for a lower ride height.

Factory Preload Settings
Scrambler XP 1000 S Front Suspension 15.63 in. (39.7 cm)
Rear Suspension 15.56 in. (39.5 cm)


Follow these guidelines if you make adjustments to this suspension.

  • Always return the suspension to the factory setting after the load is removed from the vehicle. The increased suspension height will negatively impact vehicle stability when operating without a load.

  • Always apply the same adjustment setting to both sides of the vehicle.

  • Do not increase the spring preload by more than one inch (25.4 mm) over the factory setting.

  • When decreasing preload, make sure at least two turns of preload are holding the spring between the retainer on the top of the shock and the threaded spring preload adjuster nut on the shock body. Failure to do so could cause the retainer to fall off when the suspension is fully extended.
