First of all I would like to thank Farmr123 for the helpful information on replacing the springs it was alot of help and nothing to replacing them.
The springs are in a green primary spring and a lavender secondary spring. I got to test it out for the first time today and it was well worth the $49.00 that I spent on the two springs. It takes of much quicker and the best point for me is that it seems to turn the 28" Outlaws I run over at a higher RPM in the deep mud. I was able to give it alot less throtle to turn them in the thick stuff and feel the bike has much more low end torque. For anyone who has a Sportsman 500 and are looking for another good modification for your bike well here it is at least that is my opinion and it is easy to replace them on your own.
Greg Sims looking foward to seeing yall at Fun Wheeler in Mocusan Slough mud race if it happens if not look foward to getting in some deep mud the weekend before New Years.

Congratulations! Glad you like the way it works. Ever since I did a spring swap I have told everybody with a Polaris who will listen (and some who probably were only pretending to) about the cost/benefit aspects of a spring swap. A lot of people are apprehensive about taking apart their 'baby', but explaining it is probably harder than doing it.
Now if only every time a person spent $50 or less they could get such good results...

PS can you do wheelies now? In low range, hold the brake, hit the gas, and as soon as you feel the clutch start to grab, let off the brake. It is quite a sight to see a full-fledged Sportsman wheelie. Just remember the brake is about the only thing that will get the front end down in a hurry.
