UTV A-Arms & Control Arms

Shop high-clearance UTV A-Arms and control arms engineered for Polaris RZR, Can-Am Maverick X3, Honda Talon, Kawasaki KRX, and Yamaha YXZ. Corrected geometry, stronger-than-stock construction, and exact fitment — built for riders who push hard and need parts that keep up.

How to Choose the Right UTV A-Arms & Control Arms

Selecting the right UTV A-arms comes down to three factors: lift height compatibility, material grade, and geometry correction. Stock A-arms are designed for factory ride height — once you add a lift kit or portal gear lifts, stock arms create binding and accelerated wear. Aftermarket high-clearance A-arms solve this by restoring proper suspension geometry at lifted heights.

Material & Construction

Most aftermarket UTV A-arms are built from DOM steel tubing or chromoly for maximum strength-to-weight ratio. Look for gusseted joints and powder-coat or anodized finishes for corrosion resistance in mud and water crossings. Brands like SuperATV, HCR Racing, and Assault Industries are benchmarks for quality.

Geometry Correction

Corrected-geometry A-arms adjust camber, caster, and toe to factory spec even at lifted ride heights. This reduces tire wear, improves straight-line tracking, and restores predictable handling on technical terrain. If you're running a UTV lift kit or portal gear lifts, corrected A-arms are a must-have upgrade.

Frequently Asked Questions About UTV A-Arms & Control Arms

Do I need new A-arms when I lift my UTV?

Yes — stock A-arms are designed for factory ride height. When you add a lift kit, stock arms create improper suspension geometry that causes binding, accelerated ball joint wear, and poor handling. High-clearance aftermarket A-arms restore correct geometry at your new ride height.

What's the difference between A-arms and control arms?

A-arms (also called wishbones) are the triangular suspension links connecting the chassis to the wheel hub. Control arms is a broader term that includes both upper and lower A-arms. On most UTVs, you'll find both upper and lower A-arms as part of a double-wishbone suspension setup.

Will aftermarket A-arms fit my stock wheels and tires?

Most high-clearance A-arms are designed to work with stock and aftermarket UTV wheels and tires. However, wider A-arms may require a wheel spacer or offset wheel to maintain proper clearance. Always verify fitment specs before purchasing.

How long does installation take?

A-arm replacement typically takes 2–4 hours per side with basic hand tools and a floor jack. A professional alignment is strongly recommended after installation to dial in camber and toe settings for optimal tire wear and handling.
