Here is the EPI springs. I don't think anyone else sells them. The rears are only 120" and i have not been able to find out what the factory #age is.

JumboFrank, glad to see you are back with a set of wheels under you again. Hope the creeps don't get it this time. Another fun thing to do is make a home made spike strip out of plywood and nails or screws. Paint it black and leave it in an area you know they go through to get to your quad. Speaking from years of being a carpenter it's really fun to have to get someone to use their hammer to pull a nail out of your foot.</end quote></div>

That made me laugh. I had a board nailed to my foot and when I lifted up my foot it looked like I was ready to go skiing. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I had to stand on the board with my other foot to pull it off, so believe me, I know how it feels. I would <u>love</u> to catch someone else in a trap like that. First I would have to to tell my dog NO and make him understand the trap is <u>bad</u> for him.

I'm still looking for options for the rear springs. I'm not overly concerned with the front right now. I'm a pretty big guy and I need to stiffen up the rear suspension on this thing. The stock rear springs are 100# and the EPI's epi's are 125# is that going to be a pretty noticable difference? What are the Polaris HD springs rated at? Any other suggestions? Where can I buy the MV800 Springs?

I'm not by any means knocking Highlifter here, but I called them and the guy wasn't real helpful. He did tell me that the 08 RZR rear springs are supposed to fit the 08 800 HO. For now, I ordered a set of EPI's. I'll give them a go and see how i like them. If they don't work out, I'm going to go the RZR Springs route.
