SUSPENSION ADJUSTMENT
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.

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.
