Earlier today I was adjusting the preload on the shocks on my 2013 Renegade 1000 and I noticed something odd. The rear springs were mounted on the front shocks, and the front springs mounted on the rear shocks! I noticed the part numbers called out in the service manual and sure enough mine were reversed. So I unbolted all 4 shocks and switched around the springs now the front’s a lot softer and the rear is stiffer. I haven’t began to set the preload yet since it never was right to begin with. Just wondering if anyone else has ever noticed anything like this on their quads?
