Ranger XD 1500 Shocks

[Dragoon]

I haven't been able to find out much information about the shocks that come with the new Ranger XD 1500. They just say Dual A-Arm 12 inches of travel under specifications. I assume they don't have remote reservoirs and that they are just Polaris branded shocks. I wonder if they are the load-leveling shocks off the Ranger Trail Boss?

just the generic sachs shocks that come on every low end sxs/atv. Shock therapy got a jumpstart on development for QS3s that should be out in the next couple months. That will be the first thing i swap on the new ranger. Some custom valved elkas made me like my ranger XP and it still runs with Generals most of the time.

That’s good to know. I will watch for those. That could narrow the performance gap significantly!

Good to know! Wow, those Elka's must have made a big difference! Did you do a long-arm suspension kit as well or just a shock swap?

Just shocks. But spent the time to get the spring rates and valving correct. Best money I've spent on a sxs. Well that or the springs and valving for my general xp4. Both increased my enjoyment more than any other mod
