Not worth it, buy new shocks

Are you asking about the fronts or rears? I bought all 4 raptor springs last year and the fronts worked really good for me and were a huge difference over the stock spring. They kept the sled from diving and would hold a carve much better then the stock spring. They are soft at first and then progressively get stiffer, you can run considerably less preload then stock springs and they were night and day difference for me but I only weigh 170lbs. If you weigh over 200lbs they have a stiff spring option. I would recommend them for the front shocks if you can't afford to update to a better front shock

The rear springs helped a bit with ski lift and was a huge difference in ride quality overall but I will be updating the rear shocks to raptors this year with a coupled skid

I agree with EZ. I did spring and re-valve by Raptor last year and it was worth it for the fronts but I did not notice much of an improvement with the rears. After the season my sled was squatting pretty low in the rear that I had to get them re-valved again and went back to stock springs. I'm 220 mind you.
