I was on here last week and found a post that showed how to make front coil spring spacers out of some PVC parts. And for the life of me, i cant seem to find it. Can anyone help me out? I've done a search MANY time with no prevail. Thanks in advance!!

look up in the sticky thread area. there is no pics anymore, but the directions are still there.

 

Just installed my homemade spacer .wow what difference , my front tires are almost perfectly straight up and down , my steeringis much lighter and the ridefeels better not so spongie. Pretty quick to do about an hour and I have zero experience in mechanical.

 

your welcome

 

Thanx, very happy with how the quad looks and feel with spacer and best of all was the total amount of money I spent. $0.

 

Is that what the spacers do? What about HD coils?

 

heavy duty springs do the same thing, by taking the famous sag out of the front end and bringing it back to where it was new. it's basicly a weak design from polaris that they used for years and it effects the bike greatly form harder steering to bottoming out quicker and the camber being off. the spacers do this like the heavt duty springs do, just with out spending alot of money. it was just me being cheap.

 

"It was just me being cheap" No matter how you put it, it is a few bucks that can be used otherwise and is appreciated. I too utilized your write-up as a guide and installed the PCV spacers. I particularly liked the fact that it doesn't feel like the tire is trying to tuck under while cornering. Thanks again for your contributions.

Thanks a lot. I think I will add a set of coil spring spacers. I like the way it rides now, not sure I want it any stiffer. But it sounds like it will handle better? And will get rid of that front tire camber?
