OEM springs tend to tire quickly even at low mileage. The high-lift lifter springs were designed to provide about 100 extra pounds of capacity (per 4 sets) over the new stock springs. They were also designed to make a significant difference in the performance of your ATV with the least possible impact on the ride and handling of the machine. And here's a big bonus, a complete set of lift springs can be installed for substantially less than the cost of an OEM replacement shock. For those traveling at slower speeds, with larger tires and heavier loads, lift springs will be a welcome and economical upgrade. Depending on the make, model and current modifications of the unit, high lift lift springs are known to add to the full inch of suspension lift, however, it is not guaranteed. The lift springs add some stiffness to the ride and decrease roll, but have not been found hard 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 ATV could handle a heavier load capacity. High Lift Lift Springs are just what the doctor ordered! The kit includes a pair of springs to lift the front or rear of the unit. You will need 2 sets if you do both front and rear. Powder coating the springs will void any warranty. If you want to paint your springs, you must use a different method. Springs vary by make and model. Note: For those with 2011-2019 models, you must purchase the spring adapter kit.
