Product Overview
Front shocks take the hit from washouts, rocks, work loads, and years of trail use. When one begins leaking, the front end keeps bouncing, or the machine sits uneven after an impact, replacing the pair can bring back controlled travel and balanced response.
Ride problems can also come from tire pressure, worn control-arm bushings, ball joints, bent arms, or overloaded springs. Inspect the full front suspension and match the shock length and mounting eyes before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why replace both front shocks? A: A matched pair helps keep damping and ride height more even from side to side.
Q: Will new shocks fix a front end that still wanders? A: Not if ball joints, bushings, bearings, tires, or alignment are the actual cause.
Q: Does 51400-HN8-003 guarantee fit? A: It is the strongest reference, but compare dimensions and mounting points to the removed shock as well.
