Spring adjusters
I found a great aftermarker spring adjustment kit (found in this forum) that is fantastic! If you plow as well as trail ride, this is a great alternative to using the home made spacers that do not adjust. Last week I purchased two products from tm2 in minnisotta that I think every Polaris 4x4 owner should purchase. The cost for the spring adjusters was $79.99 and I added a 1/2 spacer for $19.95 that eliminates the spring sags in the front. Their are three settings and at the highest, my bike no longer sags when the plow is up. They have two sites, TM2 Brooklyn Park, MN (763) 315-0200 and www.t-m-2.com check it out

I am the one that posted the original thread about the progressors (http://forums.atvconnection.com/pola...egressors.html) and they are definitely worth the money if you want to be able to adjust the front spring rate of your ATV and still keep the ride comfort of a Polaris other times. Just preload the springs when you have a heavy load on the front or want a stiffer ride in the front for conditions where you are riding. Great product and they have not given me any problems to date .
As for the spacers $6.00 for plastic verses $19.95 plus shipping for billet aluminum that is up to the user. I will let everyone no if I think I need the spacers when I get a plow, but for now without the weight of the plow I highly recommend the progressors as an option to be able to adjust the front spring preload like you can on the rear.

I wasn't putting down your solution, just offering an alternative. I was in the process of making a set of spacers that you recommended when I found this web site and thought that the pricing was reasonable for what I was looking for...either way is a great improvement to stock!

what we are talking about are two separate products. The adjusters which are listed as pregressors on the TM2 sight give you the ability to set the preload on the front springs on a McPherson strut just like you can on the rear shocks of a Sportsman (see full review on the link posted above) the spacers add more preload that will be there all the time just like a lift kit does. they will both take the sag out of the front, it just depends on how much weight you carry as to weather you will need one or both and if you want adjustableity or not. If you just want one setting all the time and want to save some money go with stendori's homemade spacers (see sticky at top of forum page). hope this helps you understand better.

Any idea if the adjusters offered by Polaris are the same as the TM2's?
