Front/Rear Spring Preload
Walker Evans Shock Preload Adjustment
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 vehi-
cle stability when operating without a load.
• Always apply the same adjustment setting to all four wheels.
• Do not increase the spring preload by more than one inch (25.4 mm) over the
factory setting.
1. Use the shock/clutch tool from
the tool kit to aid in making
suspension adjustments.
2. Elevate the vehicle to allow the
suspension to fully extend.
3. Turn the adjusting ring to the
left (1) to increase preload for a
stiffer ride. Turn the adjusting
ring to the right (2) to decrease
preload for a softer ride.
WARNING! Uneven adjustment may
cause poor handling of the vehicle,
which could result in an accident.
Always adjust both the left and right
spring preloads equally or have your
POLARIS dealer perform the
adjustments.
