Rear Suspension ???

I have a 2008 Sportsman 500 E.F.I. and i ride doubles alot and haul alot of weight in the hunting season... I just have really noticed the sagging lately... I was just wondering if there was some aftermarket springs or maybe a lift that would stiffen it up... I just want it to be really strong back there... thanks for the input guys...

I too am shopping around for rear springs for my 05 700 EFI. Let me know what you find. I just noticed on my bike that i have a rear spring broken. I too ride doubles and pull trailers with mine ALOT and need something alittle stiffer. I've heard of people using the X2 springs in the rear, and also EPI makes stiffer springs for the bikes too. Other than that, i'm not sure. I'm not really looking for a bunch of lift, just a stronger ride. Any info would be GREAT! Thanks!
