hey guys,
i aint sure if it would work, but it might be worth a try. someone should go to the autoparts store, and buy some small spacers thay sell for stiffening up the springs on sub compact cars with front struts. with every spacer you use, you will loose 1/2 in of travel, but it will make it tighter up front. just a thought.

How does the 650 handle with the front spring kit .
Does the quad still feel soft in hard turns?
Did you gain any clearance with just spring kit ?
How much was kit ?
How long did it take to install?
Did you ride 650 with spring installed before your installed the lift kit?
Any info I am sure all the other 650 owner would like to hear.

Where do you ride in NJ Wheres denville
Toms River NJ Here
E mail me have some great places to ride

it seems a little stiffer in the corners even with the lift kit in i wish i put the spring kit in first to see what the difference was but i didn't want to take it apart again i think i completed it in 2 hours or so the hardest part was taking the front plastic off. watch out for the c-clip at the top of the strut i tried to weasel but i had to take the plastic off enough to get to the c clip i think it was abought $150 or so th total for the lift kit and spring kit was $300 and change from high lifter i cant to see how it is on a good trail ride. I have 12 inches of travel up front and thats with a winch bumperand a rack extender and thats with the progressive springs adjusted to their lowest setting i also have abought 10 - 11 inches in the back should be fun
