Onesavage, what are HL springs and where did you get them? Do you have to modify them any? Do they just replace the springs on the plow?

I would like to have springs that are a little stiffer.

HD springs will do the trick. Its really not a difficult job. Let us know if you need help doing it.

onesavage Do you leave the HL springs on in the summer? Doesn't this make your front suspension to stiff for trail riding?

yes i leave them year round..i love the rides it is alittle stiffer,but not bouncey..i hated the stock ride after installeing my warn and brush guard..looked like hell,i bet i had 3-5 inches of sag,lift the plow and i was bottomed out..but then again i plow w/ 27" itp 589 m/s tires..they are GREAT in the snaow and ice..the best mod i have done..if you plow you shopuld also do the quadovator reverse override mod also...+++++++ in my book

Thanks onesavage ill look into the heaver springs for mine; I ride a Honda (Rubicon) now but have owned 4 Polaris Sportsman's in the past. I just bought the Moose 60' country plow and my front is sagging more than I like. Just an observation but this Polaris forum is awesome you guys are always there to help!! The Honda forum could learn allot.
