Mid-USA Shock Kit for Hardbody and DNA Springer Front Ends

Mid-USA Shock Kit for Hardbody and DNA Springer Front Ends

Tame the unpredictable rebound of your springer front end with this essential dampened shock kit. Engineered to provide necessary resistance to the spring cycle, this kit eliminates the “pogo” effect common in undampened front ends. By adding controlled dampening, you gain a more stable ride, improved tire contact with the pavement, and significantly reduced front-end oscillation after hitting bumps or dips.

Designed as a functional upgrade for specific aftermarket wide-style springers, this kit features a heavy-duty shock absorber and robust mounting brackets. The inclusion of high-quality hardware ensures a secure installation that withstands the rigors of the road while maintaining the classic look of your custom chopper or bobber. It is a vital component for riders who prioritize both the vintage aesthetic of a springer and the performance of modern suspension dampening.
