Stiffer stock Springs

Does anyone know if you can get stiffer springs for the stock shocks. Im using some offset wheels and on the stiffist seting they are still to soft. I saw you can upgrade springs to HD ones on the Prowler can you use those springs?

Re: Stiffer stock Springs

They are about 100 bucks shipped. They worked great for the extra weight we added to the bed.
High Lifter Polaris Springs

"High Lifter Front Lift Springs - Polaris 800 RZR
High Lifter Lift Springs are a set of higher capacity replacement springs which are components of the stock shock absorbers. The original equipment spring is not heavy duty and is often fatigued early by heavy loads or continuous service. OEM springs tend to fatigue rapidly…even with low mileage.

The High Lifter Lift Springs were engineered to provide about 100 additional pounds of capacity (per set) over the new stock springs. They were also designed to make a significant difference in the performance of your RZR with as little affect as possible on the ride and handling of the machine.

And here’s a big bonus! A complete set of the Lift Springs may be installed for substantially less than the cost of one replacement OEM shock. For those who ride at slower speeds, with big tires and heavier loads, the Lift Springs will be a welcome and economical upgrade.

Depending on the make and model…and current modifications to the unit, the High Lifter Lift Springs have been known to add a full inch of suspension lift…however, it’s not guaranteed. The Lift Springs add some stiffness to the ride and decrease roll, but have not been found harsh or uncomfortable by anyone who has ridden them.

One thing is for sure. If you are a hardcore mud rider…or you carry a load…your RZR could stand a heavier load capacity. The High Lifter Lift Springs are just what the doctor ordered!

Polaris 800 RZR (07-08) Front Springs
Polaris 500/700/800 Sportsman (07-08) Rear Springs"

Re: Stiffer stock Springs

The HL springs might be the only spring choice right now to fit the stock shocks. The stock springs are 2" at one end and 2 1/2" at the other. I've never seen any like that. At least the HL springs are priced good.

I wish they weren't yellow...

Re: Stiffer stock Springs

The yellow is pretty bright but the product does work well, they off-set all the goodies we added.
