Default Will progressive scrambler springs fit sportsman twins?

Looking to lift the sag out of the front. If I'm going to take the front end apart I'd like to do it right and not put spacers underneath worn out springs. Ebay has some Progressive springs for a 400 Scrambler @ $138.

Any other ideas? I've been searching around and have read about Progressive springs, Ranger springs, HL lift springs and Polaris HD springs. Can anyone with experience steer me in the right direction? Thanks a bunch.

i dont think the scrambler springs are strong enough to actually hold up the front end of a sportsman [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

I'd agree that the Scrammy springs arent going to be strong enough. Sportsman is a couple hundred pounds heavier.

O.K. guys, I hear you , makes sense. I thought I read of some guys using Scrambler springs because they are longer and preload more or something like that, must have been something else.

Scratch the Scrambler spring idea, thanks.

you can use scrambler long travel struts though, they fix the dive the sportsman has when stopping or going into turns

are they proggresive suspension? meanign the brand if so the spring rate is 90-115 and they should fit becuase they don;t work on the scrambler well(the long travel models) the springs float on the adjusters. I beleive the part number is the same for the explorer/sportsmans.
