Many were havin that issue on their machines with stock arms and the shock in the outer mounts for a couple model years. You can try rotating the springs 180 degrees to see if it helps. Are you running a lift?

Thanks and yes, I have 2” spring spacers. If it was only some model years, do you know what they did differently? A sway bar that was a little longer would fix it.

 

Yeah I do, over pretty gnarly terrain. When I got the machine I moved one side to the outer and left one side on the inner, put about 600lbs in the bed and drove around making tight turns, etc. noticed a world of difference. I’ll probably do the same experiment with the S3s. Doing the same test on the front didn’t seem to make any difference though.

 

Now I’m wondering if I should go with complete after market shocks (thinking Zbroz) as long as I’m spending so much. How much better ride would they be than the S3 springs?

 

Would ride much better than stiffer springs on factory shocks.

But I would highly recommend elka stage 2's. Call Ishock. You'll speak to Darren. He will take various information from you about your machine. And your riding style and what you expect. And then have a set of shocks custom valved and sprung for your application. Not an off the shelf one size fits all. It takes a month for them to be built. But worth the wait.

The shocks with remote reservoirs might look cool. And elka has those also if you step up in price. But suit no purpose on a ranger.

 

Thanks, you’ve provided a lot of good info. You’re costing me a bunch of money though 😁
