2012-2025 Kawasaki Teryx T2 & T4 UTV Shocks - Bandit Black Label Elite•4

Gain 33% More Wheel Travel and Built-In Lift Over Factory Suspension

Maximum Travel. Maximum Control. Built the Bandit Way.

Bandit Black Label Elite•4 UTV Shocks for the Kawasaki Teryx deliver the highest level of Black Label suspension performance, tuning capability, and wheel travel available for the Teryx platform.

Developed by Bandit UTV Suspension in collaboration with the Elka Suspension family, each shock is individually serialized and built using precision suspension components engineered through over 40 years of off-road suspension experience.

Elite•4 shocks are designed for aggressive riders and performance enthusiasts who demand maximum adjustability, increased suspension travel, and precise handling control across rough terrain, high-speed trails, dunes, mud, and technical riding conditions.

Increased Wheel Travel & Built-In Lift

The Black Label Elite•4 Teryx shocks are engineered with extended shock lengths and increased shaft travel to significantly increase suspension capability over factory Fox shocks.

Suspension Travel Increase

• Factory travel: 8" front / 8.3" rear
• Bandit Elite•4 travel: nearly 12" front and rear
• Approximately 33% more wheel travel than stock
• 1 inch longer eye-to-eye length for increased droop and articulation
• Provides approximately 2 inches of lift built directly into the suspension
• Eliminates the need for bracket-style lift kits

Additional shaft travel allows the suspension to cycle through more usable movement, improving traction, bottom-out resistance, stability, and overall suspension control across rough terrain.

What You'll Notice After Installing Black Label Elite•4 Shocks

• Increased wheel travel and suspension articulation
• Sharper cornering with reduced body roll
• Improved traction across rough terrain
• Greater suspension control during aggressive riding
• Better bottom-out resistance on larger impacts
• Increased stability at higher speeds
• Smoother ride quality across uneven terrain
• More tuning capability for varying riding conditions

Who This Suspension Is For

• Aggressive trail riders and high-speed riders
• Teryx owners wanting maximum wheel travel and adjustability
• Riders carrying heavier cargo or accessories
• Performance-focused riders wanting premium suspension tuning
• Riders who want maximum control over rebound and compression tuning

Elite•4 Performance & Adjustability

Elite•4 shocks combine advanced adjustability with Bandit TSV (2-Stage Terrain Sensitive Valving) technology for smoother suspension response, improved bump absorption, and greater control in demanding terrain conditions.

Front Shock Adjustments
