just loosen your track and raise the back of the sled up. remove the rear 2 suspension bolts holding the suspension at the drop brackets. you will have to loosen the allen set screws on the collars holding the upper idler wheels on. remove collars and idler wheels. carefully lift the springs out of the holder on the rails and relieve tension. remove spring and reverse order.

Its really self explanitory. Take the tension off of the installed springs. then un bolt the rear skid bolts and lift the tunell out of the way. Use the allen wrench needed to loosten the allen in the silver aluminum sleeve that is next to the idler wheel. Take idler and sleeve off. Take off old spring. INstall new spring in same fashion only reverse operation.
Looks like big beat me too it by just a few seconds.

Ghost its not bad what did you pay for those HD springs. I was going to do them but TriCity wouldnt sell me them said not to bother.

Fynn, $25 I bought them used. I figured I would try them. Can't hurt for that price!!

Had the HD rear springs, (405 I think they are called), on both my ProXR and Dragon Switchback and I thought the coil diameter on the HD-springs were so large that I made some plastic tube inserts to put in them. Dont realy know if they were needed but it surely made the springs sitt straighter.

I think it would make a big difference....lets face it the stock springs are made for a 150-180 pound person I have an 08 d7 163 and the stock springs suck. I think polaris would find the average person is heavier than that.
