Lift kit??

Hello all, have a 07 sportsman 500X2. I only want to raise the FRONT, not the back, would like to raise it 2" or so. I don’t see any kits, and ideas will help. I can’t seem to find much for my machine that will only raise the front. Thanks

94 trail Boss 250 Master Cylinder?

I have ordered a mc rebuild kit for my 94 Polaris Trail Boss. I am having trouble trying to remove the piston. I have tried compressed air with no movement of the piston. How can one remove the seal that is around the piston. Looking for help in how this piston is removed from the master cylinder.
Appreciate any help for this situation.

Lower control A-arm play

I replaced my lower control arm bushings around September of last year. I was replacing a boot yesterday and noticed that my lower A-arm has a lot of side to side movement for relatively new bushings. I replaced the bushings with Polaris OEM. Are these the Jccapri bushings that are supposed to be better? Is there a stronger alternative out there?

1999 Scrambler Rear Shock Adjustment

I have a question on how to adjust the rear spring on my 1999 Scrambler. I am assuming that I just turn the base of the spring, but for the life of me, I can not get it to turn. Is the complete spring supposed to rotate when I do this adjustment? It looks like the lower spring seat is locked into the adjuster with a small tab. I will post a picture of it. It has a Fox 1.5 Series ATV shock on it. I am not sure if that was a factory option or if it was added sometime along the way.
