Tender and Complete Spring Installation Instructions
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Final setting is ride height — not just preload.
Initial Setup & Measurements
-
Secure the machine in Park on level ground.
-
Measure and record:
-
Front ride height: At the forward lower A-arm mount.
-
Rear ride height: Just below the rear tow hook.
-
-
Clean and lubricate all shock threads with a wire brush and WD-40-type lubricant.
Front Spring Installation
-
Lift the front of the machine securely.
-
Remove front shocks and place them in a vise.
-
Loosen the large top spanner nut all the way down to the reservoir using holes/grooves.
-
Remove the lower coupler and slide off the springs.
-
Install the new tender springs.
-
Thread the spanner nut down until it touches the top of the tender spring, then tighten it 1 additional inch to preload the spring.
-
Reinstall the shocks. Do not fine-tune yet.
-
Lower the machine and move it forward/backward 3–5 feet to settle the suspension.
-
Measure ride height and adjust by turning the spanner nut:
-
Down = Raises machine
-
Up = Lowers machine
-
Note: This is a starting point. Every machine varies due to custom accessories. For questions or more accurate feedback, call us at 256-309-0200.
Rear Spring Installation
For 1000XP, Turbo, and PRO XP:
-
No need to remove shocks.
-
Loosen the spanner nut.
-
Slide the lower collar off using its slot.
-
Install the tender springs.
-
Tighten the spanner nut until it touches the spring, then go 1 additional inch.
-
Reinstall wheels if removed.
For 900S, 1000S, and General and Expedition:
-
Remove rear shocks.
-
Loosen the spanner nut completely.
-
Slide springs upward, use the slots to remove the lower collar, and remove springs.
-
Install tender springs first, then main springs.
-
Set 1 inch of preload using the spanner nut.
-
Reinstall shocks and torque all bolts.
Final Steps
-
With all shocks installed and bolts torqued, lower the machine from the jack.
-
Move the machine 3–5 feet forward and backward several times to settle the suspension.
-
Fine-tune ride height using the spanner nuts:
-
Front: Every ½" of preload = ~1" of ride height.
-
Rear: Every 1" of preload = ~1" of ride height.
-
Adjust in small increments (±0.25” is acceptable).
-
Nut Up = Lowers ride height
Nut Down = Raises ride height
-
For High Lifter models, add +2.5" to the ride heights listed below (they are factory-set higher by Polaris).
Crossover Ring Setup (if equipped)
After final ride height is set:
-
Install crossover rings 2 inches above the black slider.
-
Optional silencer rings can be placed between the slider and crossover ring to reduce noise.
