Most after market kits come with springs and weights,can change without taking front clutch completely off. Driven clutch will have to be taken off and apart at rear if different spring used. Most kits not that hard,just follow instructions.

Get a complete kit from EPI. They put alot of time into testing so their kits work well. Once you start changing things on your own you never know what you end up with. The weights and primary spring work together, and the drive and driven clutches work together. if you change just one component or one clutch you are still affecting the rest of the system - not in a good way.

Installing a kit is not difficult. They have great instructions and the best support line in the business.

I've also heard great things about EPI. They make <u>a lot</u> of stuff for Polaris ATVs too.
