Progressive rate springs?

[Jay B]

I'm ready to pull the trigger on some upgraded shocks for my XD. I've been looking around at some, everything I have seen so far uses a single rate spring. For what I use my machine for, it would be nice to have a couple inches of soft travel for washboards and stuff. Anybody aware of a company using a dual or progressive rate spring?

We have these on our XD1500, and it’s a whole world of difference. They’re programmable for Trail, Desert and Highway with a lot of available customization. While we installed them with HCR Mid Travel Suspension, they’re great on OEM suspension as well.

They’re not dual-rate but still work phenomenally well.

A less expensive option would be the Shock Therapy shocks and springs.

As far as I’ve seen there aren’t any actual dual rate spring setups for the 1500, and in any case, different shocks from OEM are highly recommended as the OEMs are very cheaply constructed.
