Default EPI or HIGHLIFTER

I am in search of a new set of springs for my 07 sportsman 800 (front and rear) . If you have EPI or Highlifter springs, I am curious how you like them and what made you choose one over the other? Also, a good source to find them would be helpful....Thanks!

Randy

I have ran the H/L brand for 4 years with no complaints.. They took away the sag, it rides much better( even with a bad back) and it also steers much eaiser.. I would buy them again and highly recomed them . Good Day!

Just installed EPI's on my 02 Sportsman 700.
So far I really like them although oddly enough it quit snowing so I haven't tested them with a plow. I am a big guy, over 250lbs and had a problem with the quad squatting the nose down while braking. The new springs have made that part 100% better. Steering is now easier also.

I went with the EPI's... I found them less expensive than the HighLifters. Fitted my budget better!

Thanks for all the input. Very valuable. I am going to order the EPI's today. They are less expensive and they aren't a hidious yellow! LOL! From the sounds of it, they are as good as the highlifters.
