Shocks and Springs
To ensure you have a smooth ride in your Polaris ACE, it's important to have the right suspension setup. Although the standard shocks on the ACE model are durable, the springs are of poor quality. Walker Evans offers aftermarket shocks and associated components, including springs, designed for various UTVs, including the Polaris ACE. While upgrading your suspension can be expensive, there are affordable ways to improve it. Tender springs from Walker Evans are an excellent choice for the ACE 900xc, providing increased ground clearance as well as better suspension. Regardless of your shocks - stock or aftermarket - you can adjust the preload and rebound to suit your needs. Progressive or variable-rate springs like the Bandit springs are ideal for rough terrain. If you want a different setup, going for a dual-rate system can help you adjust the spring's height. Everything Polaris RZR offers a variety of shock and spring components from trusted UTV parts makers to cater to your ACE's needs.

What to Look Out for When Buying Polaris ACE Shocks & Springs?
Types of ACE Shocks & Springs
Coilover Shocks
Polaris ACE Coilover shocks are a top pick for those seeking a blend of comfort and superior handling across all kinds of terrains.
These shocks are known for their performance, providing a smooth ride and excellent control, but they do come with a higher price tag and require more regular maintenance. All in all, it’s the cruiser’s choice.
Air Shocks
For those who value customization, tuning, and plain old cool, Polaris ACE air shocks are highly adaptable, allowing you to adjust the stiffness to match your driving style and the terrain.
They can be expensive, and a tad bit more difficult to maintain, but going with air shocks is a lifestyle.
Lift Shocks
If you want to boost your ground clearance, Polaris ACE lift shocks are designed to push off-road capabilities to the max.
These shocks are perfect for tackling tough trails and obstacles but might compromise on-road stability, making them less ideal for mixed-use scenarios.
Heavy-Duty Springs
Another good option for serious off-roading and heavy-duty tasks, Polaris ACE heavy-duty springs are built to support substantial loads during towing and hauling as well.
They are incredibly durable, making them a robust choice for rough conditions, but they may lack the comfort and customization offered by other options.
Adjustments and Maintenance
Adjustability is a key factor when selecting Polaris ACE shocks and springs. Options like air shocks offer dynamic adaptability but require frequent maintenance.
It's important to consider how easy it is to adjust your shocks and springs and how long they are likely to last under various conditions.
Following maintenance guidelines is crucial, especially if you push your Polaris ACE to its limits.
Bonus Accessories
Tender Springs
Polaris ACE tender springs work alongside the main spring to cushion minor bumps and enhance overall ride quality.
These are great for improving comfort and reducing the impact on your body during rough rides.
Dual Rate Springs
Combining two spring rates, dual-rate springs provide a balanced ride that adapts to both minor and major impacts.
This makes them ideal for both on-road and off-road use, offering versatility and enhanced comfort.
Build Materials and Durability
The materials and build quality of your Polaris ACE shocks and springs significantly impact their longevity and performance.
For avid off-roaders, it's essential to invest in products made from durable materials like steel, aluminum, billet, carbon fiber, or chromoly steel.
Make sure that your spring seals are robust and up to the task will also help maintain performance and durability.
