04 Sportsman front springs...
I recently bought a 2004 Sportsman 500 that had a Highlifter 2" lift and Highlifter heavy duty springs. I wanted to remove the lift and just use the heavy springs. When I took it apart I had a helluva time with the cv wanting to slip off of the axle shaft. I just couldn't get the clearnace I needed to get the shock and spring out. I ended up getting it done but it took alot longer than it should have. I don't have a spring compresser of any kind and was wondering what you guys do when you have to remove the front hubs for repair. I know now I can service the front end myself after having it apart and want to make sure I have the right tools next time.
