What is the main benefit of the 412 Series shocks over stock?

The 412 Series shocks offer improved suspension performance with a durable doublewall steel body and consistent damping thanks to their gas charge. The adjustable preload also allows you to better dial in your ride compared to fixed stock units.

How do I adjust the preload on these shocks?

These shocks feature a five-position cam-style preload adjuster. You can rotate the cam to select the desired spring tension, allowing you to customize the ride stiffness for different loads or riding preferences.

What is included with these shocks?

The Progressive 412 Series shocks come as a pair, ready for installation. They include the shocks themselves with progressive rate springs and the cam-style preload adjusters.
