Well they came in and I did get them on this weekend and all I can say is they are awesome!

The wheeler stands up tall now and seems that it can take whatever I want to load on to it.

The bonus on the deal was that the wheeler does NOT squat now when I hit the throttle like it used to. The power is now applied to the wheels instead of soaking up power pulling the rear springs down when the throttle is pushed. So it feels like there is more response from the machine now.

Hey guys if you have a sportsman 700 or 800 give them a try it was well worth it.

No, I am saying that I really overload my wheeler doing a lot of different things and the rear springs took a set and when I would ride it with the kids she squats  bad but most people do not overload them like I do.

What about the front springs? The ones on my 03 700 seem to be sagged out worse than the rears.  Can I get mv front springs for my wheeler?

I don't know but the RANGER front springs fit the 700/800 sportsman.

I used a 2" steel pipe cut 1.3/8" long and put it under the front springs to take care of the front "sag" and it worked great and only cost me less than $2.00 painted.

I bought EPI friont and rear, my springs weren't bad or in need of replaciong just heard good about EPI. I have them on and I can't belive the difference in ride and handling well worth the investment, would do it again in a heart beat.

If you are refering to the EPI's.

Go into EPI and see what the prices was I can't recall right now. I bought the rears and liked them so will I got the fronts. Had chance to trade machines with another guy on the same trail, you could really feel the difference between the machines. He orded his after that ride. It improved the steering not only lighter but also less BUMB STEER feed back. If nothing else at least get the fronts.
