Suspension ?'s and parts for 2003 P360 4x4 ATV

[Mercury]

Hi all

I have a Praire 360 4x4 atv its a 2003

I love this atv I put a clutch kit in it and its running great after a jet kit and intake / exhaust drill out.

I noticed though that my springs / shocks do not seem to dampen my weight any more in both the front and the back.
The back is preloaded to the max setting.

I weigh 220lbs and very rarely have two people on it

Are there any aftermarket shock / spring solutions I can put on my atv to help the ride quality and suspension properties ?

thanks, Kenny

ok let me just jump in here again, those adjustable springs for the front look great - i will def get those

the rear shock looks great too - will get that.

now my questions are as followS:

1. since we are replacing the front springs, shouldnt we replace the front shocks with something nice? Do they have nitro charged shocks anywhere?

2. the rear shock I assume comes with its own internal spring is that correct or do we use the stock spring in the back... if we use the stock spring can I get a better spring.


The idea here is for me to change my entire suspension system on my atv to make it better, as long as I am under 400 bux or thereabouts id really like to make it the best i can for that money

thanks for any advice

They unfortunately don't show a replacement shock in the books for the front. And the rear is a complete shock. We also offer many other brands like the works shock, Elka, iShock, and Fox the only problem is they don't list a application for the Prairie 360. The front shock kit from Progressive is a front spring/pre-load adjuster kit with a adjustable pre-load for different loads and riding conditions. Each kit contains a pair of Progressive rate springs and threaded adjusters which replace the stock non adjustable spring setup. Please let us know if you have any other questions or would like to order, and apologize for the delayed response. Thanks
