Anyone using the HPD plain?

DG, How do you like the HPD plain. Does it engage low like the stock and have a high rpm. How does it pull?

you can hardly tell an engagement difference vs. the stock, pretty much the same. Once it starts gaining RPMs, you can really feel it pulling. I like it alot, because i didnt want higher engagement, just more overall performance, if that makes since. that way it still works fine in mud, etc. but once you get on roads, fields, etc. you get what you want from it.

That sounds like what I want. I do like to play in the mud also. What would be the cons of a spring with a higher shift rate? Anyone know?

Increasing the spring rate will raise engine rpm from engagement to full shift, if your clutches are upshifting to fast and pulling the engine below it's powerpeak then a spring with a higher shift rate will help to correct this...

The standard Ute spring is usually the blue/green one, a white or green will give higher engagement and carry more rpm through the shift range..... You may need a new belt, if the belt sets level or down in the driven clutch it's probably time for a new one. It should ride out of the driven clutch a 1/16"th or so...

Thanks for the help. Would a standard Polaris belt be the best or is there another brand I should be looking at.?
