yeah. my stock 50" springs were riding on the bump stops, so I had to do something. I will get some better springs for these when the time comes. What weight springs did you end up going with?

Ordered a set of Racer Tech medium front 2.5" 250lbs and medium 2.5" 300lbs rears. Probably a bit light for most folks but I want max articulaton. I'll let you know how they work.

Me and the wife took the rzr up on the hill behind the house after she got home from work and put a 3" hole in my front outer cv boot. I get one thing fixed and tear something else up... Dang trees all over the log roads.

Yeah I am getting there. Once I replace my heims, I will have replaced everything except the arms. I have Bluetorch kingpins, rackzilla rack and tierods, no more lift brackets that kept bending.

How are you liking those utv inc billet hubs?

I guess there ok, have not broke one lol! Saw a good deal on them and figured I'd replace the stock ones before they broke. When you replace the heims use a quality one like H/K with teflon liners. You'll also need to check the mounting holes for wear. The heims transfer much more shock to the mounting locations than a bushing. The metal is very then and all mine were egg shaped. I welded in some Racer Tech chrome moly washers.
