HIGH-STRENGTH LOWER A-ARMS

Last updated Jun 26, 2020

One bad move or a bit of bad luck is all it takes to take out an A-arm and end a ride, or a whole weekend of riding. Stock A-arms are designed to give in severe impacts, and some aggressive drivers find they bend too easily. High-strength lower A-arms get your machine rolling again with more strength to resist bending.

AVAILABLE FOR: Polaris XP Turbo, XP 1000

The design addresses the weak points and limitations of the OEM A-arms. Larger/thicker materials are used throughout, and key areas are gusseted to combat flexing or bending.

Introduced in 2017, the improved bushing design offers less resistance than the older polyurethane components and increased durability/longevity. It also incorporates an O-ring design that helps keep grease in, and contaminants out. Due to this change, greasable Zerk fittings are no longer necessary. The 1.25- x .120-inch wall tubing is 25-percent larger and 20-percent thicker than OEM A-arms. Additional 1.5-inch lower A-arm ground clearance. Ball-joint areas are built from thicker, precision-milled steel. OEM A-arms are made from thinner, cast material prone to bending in extreme conditions.
