I just purchased a 2009 XP 850, and Im wondering if there is anyway to get more ground clearence? Either with a lift kit or just by cranking up the springs?

 

Congratulations on your new toy!!! Depends on how much money you are looking to spend. You could get a 3" lift kit from CATVOS from around $500, maybe also add some bigger tires. Or a puck lift from Rubberdown Customs, which would be a lot cheaper. How much are you looking to spend??

 

bigger tires(taller)

 

Im not looking to spend much right now, just a quick lift, I was thinking about the puck lift method but I dont wanna jeopardize my ride... Also is the puck method easy to install??

 

Here is the 3" CATVOS and 32" tires..overkill for alot...depends on what you are looking to get more clearance for..trail riding or mud...
A puck lift will comprimise the ride..it isn't a lift at all reall..it just puts more compression on the springs basically..just like increasing the pre-load adjustment...keeping the suspension from compressing..if you want to see what the puck lift would make it look like lift up on the back(or front) and extend the suspension...
