About this kit
Vertex Rear Coil-Over Shocks, fitment-checked
Rough Country 789004 is a pair of Vertex adjustable rear coil-over shocks for 2016-2022 Can-Am Defender models. The coil-over design sets 0-2 inches of rear lift, and damping adjusts across 16 stages. Machines carrying a cargo rack or similar add-on weight may settle below the full 2 inches.
These Vertex rear coil-over shocks fit 2016-2022 Can-Am Defender machines, covering HD5, HD8, HD9, and HD10 variants along with DPS, XT, XT-P, MAX, and Mossy Oak configurations listed in the fitment section. Each shock uses a 52mm honed steel body, a 16mm chrome-hardened piston rod, a piggyback remote reservoir, and nitrogen charging, with 16-stage damping adjustment and a rubber bump stop. Rough Country lists an install time of 2-3 hours. Check the fitment list and confirm your accessory load before ordering, since added rear weight can reduce the lift you see.
