READ THE REQUIREMENTS FOR INSTALLATION BEFORE YOU INSTALL
- This kit requires forward arms.
- All Polaris RZR 1000 4 models require a 3″ or greater lift kit and steering stops.
- This kit will work with all Big Lift Kits that are 3″ or greater.
- Steering stops are a requirement, no matter what lift kit, big lift kit, or forward arms are installed on the SXS.
Installation Instructions:
1. If there is not enough ground clearance to work under the SXS, you may need to jack up the front of the SXS so that you can perform the steps for installation. If you jack up the SXS make sure that it is secured so that it does not interfere with the removal of the skid plate and the installation of the control arm links.
2. Remove the front narrow factory skid plate.
3. First, disconnect the two plastic rivets securing the brake line to the frame.
4. Drill out the four smaller holes using a 10mm drill bit.
5. Find the new frame plate 86E. At the front of the plate, side a 10mm flat washer onto (2) 10mm x 45mm bolts and insert them through. Then slide a G spacer over each bolt.
6. Loosely fasten the bolts with 10mm flat washers and 10mm lock nuts.
7. At the rear of the plate. slide a 10mm flat washer onto (2) 10mm x 45mm bolts and insert them through. Then slide a G spacer over each bolt.
8. Loosely fasten the bolts with 10mm flat washers and 10mm lock nuts.
9. For the next steps we will be using the template provided to cut access holes in the plastic skid plate.
10. Locate the template 124Y. You will need to cut the template out and prepare it to mark the skid plate for cutting.
11. With the skid plate lying flat with the frame side down, place the template down and follow the directions. Cut the marked sections in the skid plate using an oscillating/cutting tool.
12. Once cutting is complete, re-attach the skid plate over the mounting plate. Re-secure the skid plate using the factory hardware.
13. Next you need to connect the control arm link bars to the frame plate tabs. The bars are made up of two separate parts that are threaded together. An Outer (hollow) bar that is painted black and an inner (threaded) bar that is zinc plated. NOTE: All bars are shipped with marine grade grease or lubricant on the threads.
14. Lubrication of the threaded portions are key to the proper function of the bars. The bars should be serviced during regular oil changes or when the unit is being serviced. Regular checks and services will keep the bars functioning properly. Make sure to use a quality marine-grade grease to lubricate the threads on the bars to prevent them from seizing up.
15. The larger outer bar will connect to the frame plate. If not already assembled, insert the LEFT-HAND heim joint 96P and LEFT-HAND jam nut LJN58F to the bar. Leave about ¼” of thread exposed for final adjustments.
16. Now insert (2) alignment cones 96Q into to the eyelet of the heim joint and connect it to the plate.
17. Slide a 12mm flat washer onto a ½” x 2-3/4″ bolt. Insert it though the tabs and heim. Secure it with a 12mm flat washer and 1/2″ lock nut. Torque the nut to 110lb-ft. Repeat to other side.
18. Now it’s time to connect the clamp collars to the lower control arms. When clamping the collars to the lower control arms you want to be as far down on the arm as you can, but you don’t want to interfere with the turning of the wheels and also with movement of the control arm bars. Meaning when the wheel is at full turn you don’t want to hit the bar and when the shock is at full compression you don’t want the bar to hit the frame. Later in the installation there will be a series of steps that you will need to do to check clearance.
19. When fastening the socket head bolt on the collars use a zigzag or cross pattern with the bolts. This will ensure an even clamp distance on both sides of the clamp.
Tighten bolts with a cross or zig-zag pattern
20. Loosely connect the clamp collars onto the lower control arm. Connect it at the lowest point possible on the arm using the ¼-20 x ¾” socket head bolts. Keep in mind you will need to adjust it later, so fasten snug, not all the way tight.
21. Repeat to the opposite side.
22. The smaller inner bar will connect to the collars. If not already assembled, insert the RIGHT-HAND heim joint 18D and RIGHT-HAND jam nut JN58F to the bar. Leave about ¼” of thread exposed for final adjustments.
23. Adjust the inner bar so that the heim will reach the clamp collar tabs. Then insert (2) alignment cones 96Q into to the eyelet of the heim joint.
24. Connect the heim joint to the collar on the control arm. Slide a 12mm flat washer onto a ½” x 2-3/4″ bolt. Insert it though the clamp collar and heim. Secure it with a 12mm flat washer and 1/2″ lock nut. Torque the nut to 110lb-ft. Repeat to other side.
25. Next, you must complete a CLEARANCE CHECK. Follow the steps and check for clearance before riding. If you check before riding you can adjust before you damage the bars, clamps, or other parts.
Performing Clearance Check:
1. Remove shock from the SXS.
2. Use the chart to record the following measurements. This important!!!
3. Measure the shock from eye to eye. Record this measurement in the A block
NOTE: You do not need to remove the spring, we did it to illustrate areas to measure.
4. Measure the length of the exposed shock shaft (between bump stop and shock body) and record the measurement in block B.
5. Measure the height of the bump stop, divide it by 2 and record the measurement in the C block.
6. Take the A and subtract B & C. This will equal what the shock will be at full compression.

Shock Length | |

B |
Exposed Shock Shaft | – |
|
C |
Bump Stop / 2 | – |
| Total Compressed Length | = | |
| Formula A-B-C= Compressed Length | ||
7. Using a tape measure while the shock is off the bike, lift the control arms until the measurement from the shock frame mount to the shock control arm mount is the length calculated above.
8. Use a jack stand or a friend to hold it in place while you situate the link bar to be close but not touching the frame. You can adjust the bars, slide the clamp up and down on the control arms, and rotate the collar to achieve proper clearance.
9. When the control arms are set to the fully compressed length, check to make sure that the adjustable link bar clears the frame and clears the tire when the tire is turned to full lock.
10. Make any adjustments to clear the tire and frame. You can adjust the bars, slide the clamp up and down on the control arms, and rotate the collar to achieve proper clearance.
11. Repeat steps on opposite side. Then re-attached the shock to the SXS.
12. When you have completed the clearance check, torque the ¼-20 x ¾” socket head bolts to 12lb-ft.
13. Located on each (hollow) bar is a single ¼-28 x 3/16″ set screw. Make sure that the set screw is tight so that the bars will not rotate during use. Do not over torque.
14. Located on each clamp collar are two ¼-20 x 3/8″ set screws. Make sure that the set screws are tighten so that the collars cannot move during use.
15. Once the installation is complete make sure to tighten any factory hardware that was removed to factory specifications. Lower jacks and remove all jack-stands. MAKE SURE THAT THE CLEANACE CHECK WAS PERFORMED BEFORE RIDING!
