The 36 front end makes a huge difference as well as cranking up the center shock and finally the power of the 850 to spin that big track to break it loose is key.

Which 36 in front end do you recommend?
It was a long time ago, I mostly forget. I think my main conclusion from replacing stock with 36" aftermarket, is to avoid any kit that requires you to remove the ball joints from stock arms and insert them in the new arms. This operation causes massive slop in the ball joints, plus you can't really sell your old arms.
Polaris has factory 36" arms now, maybe look into buying a set of those when you are shopping around.

I installed offset spindles on my 17 174 and it's much better. I got them from mtnsideproducts.
