5 Ways To Improve Your Polaris RZR Suspension

If you own a Polaris RZR and want to take it to the next level, look to the suspension. Here are 5 ways to improve your Polaris RZR suspension.

There are an awful lot of Polaris RZRs out there bombing down the trails, slamming over the dunes, blasting across the deserts and screaming along just about anywhere a Side-by-Side can go. These are some great machines and ones that definitely have made a major impact on the sport as we know it. They’re fast, fun and extremely good. But are they perfect? While they may be perfect for some, others may find areas that could stand some improvement.

One area that gets some attention from the aftermarket is the suspension. While stock Polaris RZR suspension is extremely good for all-around use, more adept drivers may find they need more. Luckily there is a wide range of ways to improve the suspension on your RZR.

Spring and Valve Kit

One way to improve suspension performance without sacrificing any of the OEM fit and finish is to opt for a spring and valve swap. This reworks the internals of the shocks and loads them with stiffer, more tuned springs. If you want to completely customize your ride, but don’t want to spend the bucks for a complete new shock set up, this will get you there. It’s not a cheap solution, mind you. And if you don’t know much about suspension systems, you need to have the work done by someone who does.
