Don't get me wrong, I'm an avid Prairie 650 fan, but let's face it folks: the big ol' boy has a shockingly low amount of ground clearance compared to it's competitors. I was wondering, would a lift kit take away it's sportier handling characteristics? What about a progressive front suspension WITH the lift kit?

 

go with the springs and the lift kit it will handle better than in stock trim. or be cheep and make a 1.25" high plastic shim and put under your stock springs. big rubber is your only option for big ground clearance.
