i changed my front springs on my 05 for woods racing big diffence over stock it handles great 100 times better i put the duel rate springs from gt thunder the stock springs are way to stiff for tight trails we ride the bike single tracks nothing over 50 inches wide. i had to stiffen up the compression on the shock a little and left the rebound alone the rear is also reboun and compression adjustable.
on the rear shock the compression is on the top. the rebound is on the bottom of the shock , it is black and doesnt click. you will have to bend down to reach it, it is on the right of the quad if you are facing it.
