are these lift springs strong? will they last? thinkin about adding another inch of clearance to my foreman and saw these liftsprings and i havent heard anything about them...let me know if there worth it or not? leave me your opinion....thanks!

 

what brand lift springs are you talking about????

 

im not talking about any certain brand but what ever is best you have any suggestions ..just wondering if they are strong or not if you buy some good ones. let me know what ever you know about any kind cause i have no clue so any thing would help thanks...

 

i seen your pics i have the same bike...except i got rid of my mudlights but my wife has the same wheels and tires as you but her quad is red....what size tires do you have on there and do you have the lift springs or lift kit ...what all mods do you have i guess is what im gettin to? thats a good lookin quad

 

Lift springs are OK, the ones from highlifter have a higher spring rate, which is great for carrying heavier loads, but will make the ride stiffer then stock (and we know our bikes already ride stiff!!!!) They replace the stock springs using the stock shocks.

The progressive suspension 512's advertise a 1" gain but a softer ride (on the softer setting) and 5 way adjustability and seem to be a good investment.

Dont use either of these with a lift kit, it will way over extend the angles of the rear shaft, and front CV 1/2 shafts.

I dont actually reccomend any lift when using bigger tires due to the stress added to the 1/2 shafts working at extreme angles. Dunno if you'll clear 28's stock or with only 1", but 27's fit fine either way.

Too bad noone has designed a real lift kit like they do for trucks that drop the entire suspension to get lots of lift and keep steering and axle geometry the same. I'd get 4" and go to 30's if you could do it!!!

 

i have got a 2" lift on mine already and i just put some 28" mudzillas and there is a little rub on the fender but not too bad they fit just fine but im gonna need more power now so i can turn these heavy tires.. i thought about gettin those 30" mudlights but i thought it might be to much...thanks for the info man... it helps

 

I was gonna get 27" Zillas for my 450, but after riding my buddies 450 with 26" Zillas I'm going to get Mud Bugs instaead. The zillas are heavier anyway, but they load up with much more bog which makes them extremly hard to spin in 2nd gear. We dont have much mud here, all peat bog...very slimy and heavy.
