Run 34” Tires on Your Defender HD8 without a Lift
Big tires doesn’t always call for a sky-high lift kit. SuperATV’s Atlas Pro BFT Suspension Kit for the Can-Am Defender HD8 gives you the clearance needed to run 34” tires while keeping your machine planted and easy to handle. With 2” forward offset Atlas Pro A-arms plus a 2” lift from shock brackets and spring spacers, you get more room underneath and a more aggressive look without drastically changing the way your Defender rides.
Atlas Pro A-Arms Can’t be Beat
Atlas Pro A-arms are the toughest A-arms SuperATV has built for the Defender HD8. They use massive 1.5” DOM tubing that’s significantly larger than stock, giving you extra strength for rough trails, hard work, and big tires. SuperATV also reinforced common weak points with CNC laser-cut steel brackets and added billet aluminum spring spacers for even more durability. Finished with a UV-resistant powder coat and designed to deliver an extra 1.5” of ground clearance, these A-arms are built to handle abuse without backing down.
SuperATV is so confident in its A-arms that they come with a lifetime warranty. Good luck finding that anywhere else!
Get Them Preassembled
Want to save time and skip the hassle of pressing in ball joints yourself? Just add a set of SuperATV ball joints to your order and it will install them in your A-arms for free. That means no fighting with old ball joints, no buying a press, and no wasting time in the garage—SuperATV handles all the hard work before your parts even arrive.
NOTE: You must re-use your stock ball joints if you don’t select preassembly.
Keller Ball Joints
Keller Ball Joints use a two-piece design that eliminates the need for a snap ring. They thread onto your A-arms like a nut and bolt, which makes these ball joints virtually impossible to pull out. The high-quality chromoly steel stud combined with an advanced tool-steel body makes them perfect for bigger machines, bigger tires, and bigger rides. And since they’re greaseable and rebuildable, you can keep them running perfectly.
Super Duty 300M Ball Joints
300M grade steel is the strongest ball joint material on the market. SuperATV took that material and combined it with its superior design engineering to make the strongest stud possible. That means minimal narrowing at the neck and an adjustable stud. At 2.25x stronger than stock, you can't buy a stronger ball joint than SuperATV’s super duty 300M ball joint.
Heavy-Duty Ball Joints
The heavy-duty ball joints are designed with ultimate performance and convenience in mind. Whether you’re doing flips or chasing hills, SuperATV's proprietary blend of hardened 4340 VAR steel and zinc plating means this ball joint can take it. The tests show that SuperATV's ball joint can take double the pressure of an OEM ball joint!
Standard Duty Ball Joints
SuperATV’s standard replacement ball joints give you OEM quality without the OEM price! They’re made with hardened chromoly steel studs and housings—all zinc plated—for superior strength and longevity. All of this delivers a ball joint that’s as strong as or stronger than stock.
