Default Sportsman 500h.o. shocks

I got a 04 sp 500ho with a 60" snow plow. I was wondering if there was something else besides shock spacers on the front shocks to keep the front shocks from compressing with the weight of the plow. I thought I read that some people were using hockey pucks. If this is true how would I put them on.

I believe that you can also get heavy duty springs

When I installed 26" Mud Bugs my solution was to install P heavy duty springs along with a hockey puck cut in half. The end result was a stiffer suspension and a lift of 1 1/2".
