Default heavier front springs

I just pit a new winch on my 2001 kawasaki prairie 400. With the added weight i would like to put some bigger front springs in the front. I was wondering if anyone had any information on this change and where i could find these springs.
thanks

Progressive Suspension makes adjustable front springs and Kawasaki also offers heavier rate springs for the 400.

Hey Novakaw650, just went to two kawi dealers,one said that the progresive springs were no good that he had to replace the front shocks because they blew out. The other one said that kawi didn't make any springs for the 400. I looked in the owners manual and it said in it that there is another set of springs. I emailed kawasaki and asked them. I'm still waiting for there reply. I'll try to keep you informed. Thanks for your help. Mudplug

Just got my reply from Kawasaki today. Not bad only took them one day to get me the info. They have a heavier spring for the 400 but I wonder if it is enough? Only .2kg difference between the stock and the heavier one. Seriously contemplating buying the progressives.
