What is the deal with the angle of the front wheels on the Sportsmans? You know, the way the angle in at the top. Is it due to the use of struts or something?

 

the springs start to sag from the added weight of stuff, winches, plows, gear, etc

check out www.erlandsonperformance.com for heavy duty springs

 

or add spacers to take some of the slack up. either way would help straighten the fron end back up. sportsmans have weak front springs w/ no adjustments.

 

I made a set of 3/4" spring spacers outta couple two piece set collars and that staightened it right out

 

I made a 1" spacer mainly for the plow on my trail boss

 

Careful if you have a plow on the front. If you raise the front end (at least with the Glacier II system) it will change the height of the mounting bar.

If the mounting bar is raised and the plow is angled to one side then the trailing edge of the plow will be off the ground by the amount that you raised the mounting bar. (The leading edge will dig in and the trailing edge will leave snow on the ground.)

Also if you put more than 4 psi in the front tires the same thing will happen.

I don't think you'd have the same problem with other plow mounts because they usually mount back farther.

I put the yellow Highlifter HD springs on and it didn't raise the mounting bar height more than 1/4" but it did stiffen up the suspension nicely.

 

Polaris line of equipement Pure is now selling after market spring load adjusters for the front end springs. Anybody gave them a try yet? would it negate the need to install heavyduty spring?
