Need new springs ?
I have a 2007 500efi X2 with 2500 miles , it's used 80% single rider.The front tires lean in at the top about 25 degrees.I have more wear on the inside of the tread pattern.Do I need new springs? Spacer?
Can I dismount and mount the tires (rotate ) like a motor cycle tire.(seat the bead with out a high volume air source?)

WELL I ACTUALLY ADDED ABOUT 4 OF THE SHIMS THAT ARE USUALLY ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SPRING FROM THE DEALER IT JUST COST A COUPLE DOLLARS.I WAS SHAKING THE TIRES AT 12 AND 6 TO SEE IF THERE IS ANY PLAY IN THE BEARINGS+HILLIARDS AND ONE STRUT LIFTED UP TOO EASY,NOTICED THERE WAS SPACE BETWEEN THE BOTTOM OF THE SPRING+STRUT MOUNT AND ALSO NO SHIM.THE OTHER SIDE HAD ONE+WAS ALITTLE STIFFER,SO PICKET UP 7 MORE+ ADDED 4 PER SIDE WHICH ONLY EQUAITS TO 1/4 INCH BUT IT RAISED ME ABOUT AN INCH, CAUSE I MEASURED BEFORE+ AFTER.MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ENOUGH ROOM FOR THE SPRING TO SIT ON THE BASE OF THE STRUT WITHOUT IT SLIDING OFF+HITING THE SHOCK...

You can also get spring pre-load adjusters and set them at 0, + 1/2", or + 1" depending on what you're doing. http://www.purepolaris.com/Det...463(PolarisPGACatalog)
