Have more pics of clearance before and after. I gained 2+ inches everywhere. The new suspension is way beefier, better welded, and better paint than stock stuff. Need to go ride the crap of it now!

 

Better get you some "S" flares. That thing is going to THROW some mud around, lol.

Forgot to say, LOOKS GOOD !!!!

 

Looking good.

 

Tekrsq,

Been shopping around for flares. Saw on Amazon last week Polaris OEM S flares for $145. Now they are gone. Any suggestions?

Gonna do 27x9 and 27x12 tires as soon as i can afford them. Will need to clutch then too

 

I'm running 27x9 and 27x11 under stock "S" flares. At the time, I couldn't find any that were wider. There might be some now, but I haven't seem them. This an older pic, but it gives you a good idea of how far the tires stick out (but I have the +6 arms, too). I don't care how hard you try, you can't keep it from throwing TONS of mud, lol.

 

wyomyork, how wide is your machine now? I am contemplating what I'm going to do with mine and haven't made my mind up just yet.

 

Jbone800
It is 58.5"s front and rear now. It will be 60.5"s when I get the bigger tires

 

That's not bad for stock wheels. If you change the wheels, watch your backspacing. I'm sitting at just under 69" in that pic. I've readjusted the suspension and got down to 67", but that's the best I can get it.

 

Gonna do 27x9 and 27x12 tires as soon as i can afford them

have you thought about possibly doing all 4 tires the same size ?

 

What shocks did you get with the conversion

 

RockyTop,
Got the Phantom Pro-series. Haven't had a chance to put any of this to the test yet. We still have snow where we ride and the weather has been crap.

riley804,
I have not thought about the same size tires. I am just going to turn it into an S model and they had 27x9x12 and 27x12x12 on the same factory rims.

 

Some clearance before/after shots

 

 

I am installing the Racertech rear frame/diff stiffener bracket today. The S models came with one from the factory to support the longer/wider suspension. Saw it on here to do this. This forum is so helpful!

 

Does Super ATV also recommend this? I didn't know that and I have the same kit waiting to be put on as soon as I get home.

Edit: Just to clarify, what brace are you talking about?

 

Looks great Mike!

 

wyomyork, what did you do for the shocks? Did you get the phantom pro sport ones, and if ya did how do you like them?
I'm pretty sure im going to buy the kit but just need to nail down all the other parts i should go with. Im pretty new to all this so im just trying to get it figured out so i can do everything once.

 

it just braces the rear shocks together i believe is what hes talking about, so really no different than the superatv 2-3 inch lift minus the lift lol

 

So it goes across the top of the shock mounts?

 

SuperAtv,

Part #20 is the Polaris factory rear suspension brace they added to the 800 S models to support the longer travel and tougher abuse.

Here is Racetech's version of the rear brace installed on my RZR
Hope this helps!

 

Yes brackets run along the frame for upper shock mounts.

 

I do have a Racer tech 2" lift on it also that will stiffen up the upper rear frame where the shocks mount.

 

Finally got test drive. A couple things. The sway bar was an issue. It keep like binding up and making a horrible clunking noise. Just unbolted it and rode without. The shocks are very adjustable and i did find good settings front and rear. The the RZR handles soo much better, smoother was a joy to drive. If anyone knows how to adjust that sway bar i would appreciate it. If not will ride without it was not problem

 

If anyone knows how to adjust that sway bar i would appreciate it.

I adjusted both sway bars to the work bench. I don't do hi speed cornering, and ride is much better (smoother) on rocky trails without them. Just re-install support brackets, as they are part of frame structure.

 

What do you mean it was binding up? I am about to do this install.

 

Not sure what it was doin? It just would make a bad noise when the rear and would articulate. I am goin to call Superatv tomorrow about it

 

How did you make out man?
