Default Prarie 400 4x4 belt system

Hey,
Can anyone help me find an aftermarket company that sells a high performance belt and spring kit for the torque converter for my 1999 KVF Prarie 400 4x4. I was told that it was necessary when oversized tires have been installed due to the added torque on the belt system. I was also told there was a way to snorkel the belt system for deep mud and water riding, but I haven't figured that out yet.
Any help will be appreciated.
thanks, Ryan

I got the white spring from EPI for the P400. It worked wonders for bigger tires.
Just use the stock belt. Make sure it has ribs on both sides. The one without ribs can explode (was recalled).

Snorkle jobs are all custom. You cut and/or glue anything you have to cut to do the job. The bad thin about the P400 is the exit is rearward, so it is harder to get a tube going to the front without running a pipe next to you leg.

Anyway, people are just using their own ingenuity to make their own snorkle.

I never snorkled one. I know it is not a big deal, though. I have photos of other people's machines with snorkles.
