Tackle the harshest Aussie terrain with confidence thanks to Rough Country's Vertex Coilover Shocks for the Can-Am Defender. Designed for premium off-road performance, these coilovers feature 16-stage adjustable damping—so you can fine-tune your ride for maximum support, comfort, and control no matter where the track takes you.

With an adjustable 0–2" lift range, you can set the perfect ride height for added clearance or heavy loads. The rugged 3-stage seal system keeps out dust and debris, while the internal rubber bump stop helps soak up the hard hits and rough landings. Whether you're cruising through scrub, crossing creek beds, or working on rough paddocks, Vertex gives your Defender the capability it needs.

Built to handle the punishment of off-road riding, the Vertex features a monotube, nitrogen-charged design for consistent damping and quick response. It's engineered with a 16 mm chrome-hardened piston rod and a 52 mm honed steel body, coated in zinc plating and a double clear coat for long-lasting corrosion resistance. A spanner wrench is included for easy height adjustments in the shed or on the go.

This kit installs in 2–3 hours using basic tools and includes everything you need to upgrade your suspension. Backed by Rough Country's three-year replacement warranty against manufacturing defects, the Vertex Coilover Shocks deliver serious performance with peace of mind.
