When the Polaris RZR XP Turbo starts to feel saggy and harsh over chatter, worn tender springs are often the cause. They handle the first part of the shock's travel, so tired springs mean a rougher ride on every small bump. These Replacement Tender Springs are made in the USA from heat-treated steel with rates matched to the XP Turbo, so the ride goes back to smooth.
Highlights
- 430 lb./in. front spring rate
- 370 lb./in. rear spring rate
- Heat-treated steel holds its rate under hard use
- Engineered for the RZR XP Turbo and XP 4 Turbo
- Made in America
What Tender Springs Do
In a dual-rate setup, the soft tender spring compresses first to soak up small trail chatter, then the main spring takes over for big hits. Once the tender springs lose their rate, the machine sits lower and the small-bump feel gets choppy. Fresh springs restore that first stage.

Installation Notes
Swapping springs means compressing the shock spring, so use a proper spring compressor and follow the instructions. Set preload back where it was before you started, then fine-tune.
