Most popular shock model and it can turn your UTV into a real performance machine with true sports capabilities!

The Stage 3 model is derived directly from our top-end Stage 5 model, with which it shares most of the same components. It features a single external compression adjustment knob that controls the low-speed compression damping that is combined with an internal high-speed blow-off circuit which relieves peak pressure upon impacts to achieve race-level performance in a package that is more accessible and easier to adjust.

Why Elka suspension?

1. Designed for intensive applications and spirited riding
2. Turns your UTV into a more capable machine that can carry more speed over rough terrain and bumps
3. Perfect choice for riders looking for a reservoir-type shock with simple but effective adjustability
4. Provides increased stability, more traction and better protection against bottom-out

AVAILABLE CONFIGURATIONS

• Front shocks, 36mm or 46mm, sold as a pair
• Rear shocks, 36mm or 46mm, sold as a pair

ADJUSTMENT FEATURES

LOW-SPEED COMPRESSION

Allows fine-tuning of the damping resistance when the shock is being compressed slowly. This adjustment controls body roll when cornering, rear-end squatting under hard acceleration, front-end diving when braking, riding over whoops at moderate speed, undulations and elevation changes in the terrain.

To use, turn the red knob clockwise to increase damping resistance, therefore making the suspension stiffer or turn counter-clockwise to reduce damping resistance, therefore making the suspension softer.

THREADED SPRING PRELOAD

Lets the rider fine-tune the initial force applied on the springs and precisely balance the weight distribution across the front and rear wheels while setting up the ride height (ground or chassis clearance) and to lower or raise the vehicle to adapt to various situations or to suit your personal preference.

To use, turn the preload adjustment ring clockwise (from top of the shock) to increase preload and raise the vehicle or turn counter-clockwise to reduce preload and lower the vehicle.
