If you drive aggressively, or carelessly, you can bend stock A-arms on many popular UTVs. Fortunately, many aftermarket A-arm manufacturers offer high strength lower A-arms that can get you back on the trail for far less than replacing the uppers and lowers, and often for less than the price of original parts. COGNITO LOWER CONTROL ARM KIT AVAILABLE FOR: Can-Am X3 X rs, Polaris RZR XP 1000, XP Turbo S, RS1 FEATURES: Cognito A-arms are made from high-grade steel alloy tubing for maximum strength with minimum weight.

   Every once in a while, we bump into Polaris test engineers out testing the latest vehicles. When we see one, we are reminded to visit the Polaris government and defense website to see what else they have been providing to our freedom fighters. Since day one when we laid eyes on the Sportsman MV, we’ve always wished Polaris would offer a civilian version to the public and the Polaris MRZR Alpha is no different. You can drool over all Polaris military vehicles at their website www.military.polaris.com Check out…

Summer is almost over and kids are heading back to school.

AMERICA ENERGY AND TRANSPORTATION In May, we reported that Polaris has teamed up with Zero Motorcycles for its “rEV’d up” initiative to offer its customers electric vehicles across its entire product line. Polaris has been helping hunters sneak up on Bambi with its Ranger EV since 2016.

2021 DAKAR RALLY The 2021 Dakar Rally took place in the first half of January and marks the 43rd annual running of the famous race. It’s the longest off-road race on the planet, but is it the toughest? Well, that’s debatable. But, the fact that competitors have to travel nearly 5000 miles during the 12-day event while keeping their cars alive and braving the elements of the Saudi Arabian desert certainly makes it one of the toughest races. Last year, Casey Currie made history by becoming the first American to win (American…

MAKE A RZR PRO XP TOOLKIT The RZR Pro XP platform is gaining in popularity. They are being built up for everything from high-speed racing action to fun, family adventures. We like the great new features of this RZR, including more cockpit room and storage, along with a better powerplant and cool new look. In addition to a long-travel option, the other thing Polaris didn’t give you is a good toolkit. While they provided a little one, it doesn’t even have a socket or wrench to fix or change a tire. By going over this ride…
