Polaris Heavy Duty Rear Springs

[ckspeed]

I have the new .375's sitting here, haven't put em on yet, maybe I should get the .405's. I'm about 260 w/gear and I carry extra fuel, bunje bag (w/bunje, water bottle, etc.), a jack someday, shovel, kitchen sink, and a few basic tools.

The Polaris manual says ideal sag is 5 inches at the rear bumper after a hard drop on the seat.

You guys that've put em on, what's your weight?

Can it be too,, uhh,,,stiff?

405 90° springs are the way to go, due to the angle you get more tension on em with the lower steps on the adjusters.......

Wouldn't that be the opposite effect?

Upon installation, the adjuster block would contact the short end sooner with the 77° than the 90°, therefore tensioning the spring for a longer period of travel.

Definetly go with the 405-77*, I had the 375* and it didn't change that much. I also weigh 240 plus a gas can and bag, there a little bit stiff now, but I think they will sag. Make sure the block is pushed against the shock bracket if you go with the 405's, this will give more room for the spring.
