Default Struts or Springs?

I have a set of Elka front springs but I have not installed them yet. I now hear that Works offers struts. Which is the better way to go? I know both would be best but it has to be one or the other. I have a winch and do plow with it so I'm thinking the springs would be better. What do you guys think?

Thanks!!!

EasterEgg,

I have the Works Struts on my '03 P650. I live near Plattsburgh, NY. Kind of far from Rochester, but if you are ever in this neck of the woods let me know and you can check them out. Works custom valves them for your individual needs. I imagine that if you let them know that you plow with them, they can let you know if they can accomodate that. I like them very much. I have a winch and they planned for that. My front end sits noticeably higher with the Works Struts vs the stockers. The struts were $279 and shipping. I had them in about two weeks. I have had them for several weeks and so far, so good!

Guys,

I would post a link to a picture of my quad, but I guess that links to other web sites are not allowed[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]. If you go to the Kawasaki Riders forum, and look under Prairie/Bayou forum for post entitled Here is my Prairie...Lets see yours, you can see a pic of my P650, with the struts, on page 6 of the post.
