Never ever would have thought I need to wash my shocks lol that’s why I love these videos 😂

@thejourneyretold Год назад

We need one on suspension setup - like in real life - not on a whiteboard. Like video a car going over bumps/whoops and then break down the slow-mo, make appropriate changes, and then do the slow-mo again. Same thing with adjusting your sway bars too - This would be so helpful so we can make the most of your kickass suspension!! Stoked AF for my new billet race rack! I'll then own a full Shock Therapy Car!!!

Bad ass brother. We will work on it

love your videos guys thankyou

@bobbyb608 Год назад

I have wear on my body with yalls springs, I just assumed it was just part of riding hard. Glad to know for sure it’s just a typical thing👍🏻

@JQR9 Год назад

You guy rock! Just ordered a spring kit for my xp 1000 last week and I can’t wait to feel the difference. As an engineer I appreciate your commitment to sharing the technical knowledge of how why the products you make are superior.

@ShockTherapyllc Год назад

Thank you Josh. Can’t wait to hear your opinion on the spring kit. Your going to love it

@patd4u2 Год назад

I brought my brand new pro XP in there to get the RIS done couple of months ago, I just went out and looked at it and you guys did put the Shock Therapy spring dividers on it. so far no scratches on the body. can't believe that those shocks have 300 miles on them. And that he brought them to you in that dirty condition. Just looking at the Shock body wear you can see he does not clean his car very good.

and those are badass

@tonygreve5504 Год назад

wow what a dif your gear made to my krx

@surfntchr Год назад

What about using a fabric shock cover to protect the slider? Any benefit? Already have the dual rate on my XP1000 (Love them!) and hoping to limit wear...sorry, guess I spoke before you finished...

@tonygreve5504 Год назад

so i got the spring kit and your dividers for my krx 1000 how do you get the stock dividers off

@cabodog3392 Год назад

You compared old springs with your new springs for the level example. I sent my shocks to you for rebuild and new springs. Why didnt you relace my calars or inform me about this info about the colars as well. You just said colars are included. Kind of the same as the exploding top out noise. Your answer, buy our limit straps. Great marketing guys but not happy at all with your product or service!

@scottsizemore1821 Год назад

Hi, great video as always. I just got my dual rat spring kit from you guys for my 22 pro xp ultimate. I haven't got a chance to install it yet. After I get them installed and possibly have to readjust the preload nuts to change the ride height, do I have to readjust the crossover rings location as well, or will those stay at your original measurement from the top of the shock body? Thanks

@ShockTherapyllc Год назад

Most of the time you don’t need to change them but you always need to check them. A lot of factor go into that. Our video instructions will go over that process as well. Good luck! 👍🏼

@tonygreve5504 Год назад

?? how do you get the oem krx1000 dividers off

@RamonGonzalez-xl7gu Год назад

You guys install my spring kit with internal valves Not going to lie it was like day and night difference on the ride quality. After that it damage my body shocks. I just purchased a turbo R I am questioning if I should take it back to you guys because I don’t want to damage my shocks

@ShockTherapyllc Год назад

As I mentioned in the video there are many reasons that contribute to body wear. Most happen when it’s still stock. Most are improved with our parts. But on your pro R, it has stainless steel body sleeves factory so you won’t get any body wear. 👍🏼

@shooter321go Год назад

You said all your spring kits come with new dividers? I'm pretty sure mine didn't. But, I order mine back a little over a year ago. So, not sure if these were added to kits, but dang I may have to order a set of yours. Mine are rubbing thats for sure and im consistently checking and cleaning, lol. I know I'm a little late but good video.

@ShockTherapyllc Год назад

Not all spring kits come with new dividers. Only the kits on UTVs that have cheap dividers stock. Like a Walker kit. But we also made this change within the last year or so. If your dividers are worn then buy some for sure. 👍🏼

@shooter321go Год назад

@@ShockTherapyllc O I gotcha. Yeah mine was a Walker on a 2021. Thanks for the info.......

@tigg4791 Год назад

What about PTFE or silicone spray lube? White lithium grease or WD-40 I assume are no good, but is there something that would help? I've been using the PTFE for a few rides and it seems to do the job, the sliders were sticking and not sliding before I sprayed them after a few rides on the new shocks I got back from you a couple months ago. 2020 KRX1000

@ShockTherapyllc Год назад

Almost all lubricants can either attract dust and dirt making worse or create a paste. Or cost too much to continue all the time like graphite. If it works for you then continue but constant cleaning is needed. 👍🏼

@tigg4791 Год назад

@@ShockTherapyllc I do spray and let dry, then ride till I see it is dirty 100 miles or so, give it a power wash and reapply when dry. I made a vid of it, search; KRX1000 Shock Therapy silent x overs. I must have had sand in them before I sprayed because the x overs were not moving at all, so not so smooth ride. I thought the KRX was good stock, but sooo glad I had you do the shocks and springs, the ride is amazing (once I figured out how to adjust them, higher is not always better), rides nice just past half way on the dial. Thanks for great products and informative vids

@tonygreve5504 Год назад

worth the coin

@tylerraffensberger3756 8 месяцев назад

Would doubling up on seal savers meaning (stacking on top of one another) for the trail rider be beneficial to avoid debris in the divider and not retaining heat at the same time

@ShockTherapyllc 8 месяцев назад

Good idea. If you keep debris from getting in on top that may help

@mcroost6244 Год назад

How much body wear is too much? My RS1 (with your spring kit) measures about 3/64 deep at its lowest point. Do you just run them until they blow out? How thick is the body material?

@ShockTherapyllc Год назад

Seams like a lot. If your local brink it by. If not give us a call.

@dougfrombergen3984 4 месяца назад

Soooo, WHO DOES MAKE YOUR SPRINGS ??

@6gatornation Месяц назад

something that didn't get discussed Bottom out bumper stops Can you replace them by removing the bottom mount Or do you have to disassemble the whole shock Do you sell them separately I'm looking for orange 2016 rzr xpt rear fox 1400 miles Garage kept but Full of cracks hopefully the ones I buy last longer If you don't have them in Orange do you know someone who does

@ShockTherapyllc Месяц назад

You can replace them that way. Only issue is they are lock tight on so you have to heat up the lower loop enough to melt the lock tight but not enough to ruin the anodizing. We usually take the shock apart and remove them from the other direction. We do sell them just call the shop and we can facilitate for you.

@6gatornation Месяц назад

@@ShockTherapyllc thank you for taking a moment to respond your reservoir extensions have been holding up great got several compliments also

@mikeburke4797 7 месяцев назад

How is it that Shmitty doesn’t have shock body wear problems?

@ShockTherapyllc 7 месяцев назад

We have many pictures of their spring kits on shocks that come through here with wasted shock bodies that we are replacing. We just don’t do any negative promotion.
