First Suspension Upgrade

First suspension upgrade for Can-am X3 After you purchase a new side-by-side it seems like the laundry list of performance parts and accessories starts to add up and yes there are some safety accessories that should be handled first before looking at suspension upgrades but amongst the first few parts added to your machine, we recommend a set of heavy duty lower control arms.

We rank this as the top suspension part to upgrades because of the catastrophic damage that can occur if the oe lower control arms fail. The factory lower control arms on a can-am x3 have a clearance dent manufactured on them to clear the frame at full suspension compression. This clearance indent matched with the control arm being made up of thin stamped steel material is a ticking time bomb and a recipe for disaster. Usually when this fails it is at high speeds or with the combination of speed and airtime and the chances of collateral damage increases drastically.

When the lower control arms buckle and fail it typically will lock either one or both tires up and can send the machine into a cart wheel or aggressively into the ditch or will break other front end steering and suspension parts. Sometimes this can result in a full total out of the sxs.

We recommend installing a set of Deviant Race Parts high clearance lower control arms not only for the added strength and piece of mind but these give the car up to 3 inches of added ground clearance. Deviant backs these up with a limited lifetime warranty so if somehow you use and abuse these to the point of bending an arm or breaking the part, they will send out a new set, but that is not an easy feat. Deviant's lower control arms are race proven and have been put through some of the most rigorous testing and situations!
