Honda Talon 1000X 2 Seater Tender Spring Kit

Honda Talon 1000X 2 Seater Tender Spring Kit

The All Thingz UTV tender kit for the Honda Talon 1000X 2 Seater replaces the front and rear tender springs without replacing the complete shocks. Choose this listing for the 1000X 2 Seater application. All Thingz UTV manufactures the springs in this kit.

What this kit offers

• A spring-package refresh intended to improve comfort when correctly matched and adjusted for your vehicle.
• Tender-spring replacement while retaining the existing main springs.
• Keep your existing shock assemblies; replacement shocks are not included.

Vehicle fitment

Before ordering: Confirm the model, seating and installed shocks. Double-check your selected spring color and package. Supply the model year, usual passenger/cargo load and suspension modifications with your order.

What’s included

Choose from the colors currently offered in the selector. Powder-coated finishes are applied at All Thingz UTV; use the displayed price for your selected finish and package.

What the tender spring does

The tender spring works with the main spring in the shock assembly. While both are free to compress, their combined spring rate is lower than either spring alone. This lets the spring stack respond differently through its travel. A tender spring that remains fully compressed at normal loaded ride height has little compression travel left to contribute; however, spring contact by itself is not proof of a defect. Evaluate ride height, load and the intended shock setup together.

This tender upgrade retains the main springs. A full dual-rate replacement changes both upper and lower springs. Neither package changes the shock absorber’s internal damping.

Installation overview and setup

Use the Honda service procedure for the exact model year and installed shocks, together with the instructions for your All Thingz UTV kit. This is an overview, not a substitute for the complete service procedure. Professional installation is recommended.

1. Record front and rear ride height on level ground, with tire pressures and operating load noted.
2. Securely support the vehicle and unload the suspension. Use suitable spring-compression equipment and release spring tension before removing retainers.
3. Identify each supplied spring’s front/rear position. Follow the shock-specific procedure for the selected spring package, retaining or installing only the appropriate dividers and hardware.
4. Reassemble using the fastener torque specifications for the exact vehicle. Keep adjustment settings matched left to right on each axle.
5. Settle the suspension by moving the vehicle forward and backward, then remeasure. Make adjustments with the suspension unloaded and within the shock manufacturer’s limits. Check crossover settings where fitted after changing preload.

Do not open a pressurized damper or remove its reservoir cap as part of a routine spring change. For kit-specific settings, contact All Thingz UTV. Factory preload dimensions and another brand’s spring settings are not automatically correct for this kit.

All Thingz UTV ride-height baseline

These are the existing All Thingz UTV front/rear reference figures published for this listing, retained by tire size. They are not factory specifications or a guarantee of finished height. Use them with kit-specific setup guidance; do not transfer settings from another model.

Measurement: Use level ground, consistent tire pressures and a documented load. Settle the suspension before measuring. Use the same front and rear reference points each time and confirm the kit’s measurement points with All Thingz UTV before treating these figures as adjustment targets. Tire diameter, load and modifications affect the reading. Listed tire sizes do not confirm clearance or tire fitment.

Spring installation video

General demonstration: This video shows a Polaris Pro XP Dynamix and explains spring-installation concepts. It is not a model-specific procedure for every vehicle on this page. Use the service instructions for your exact model year, shocks and any suspension modifications.
