Front Lift
1) Place jack under center of ATV front end and lift until front wheels clear the ground. Be careful to
support ATV properly so that it is secure, but so that the A-arms and shocks can drop to full extension.
2) Remove front wheels.
3) Disconnect the front control arm, hub, brake assembly, tie rod, and axle. Slide the hub off the axle.
4) There are two ways you can install the lift. You can take the strut and springs completely off. If you
do this, then the front plastic will need to come off on the newer models. We are going to show you a
“short cut” method.
5) Leaving the top of the strut connected to the frame loosen the two bolts on the back of the strut. This
will allow the strut to slide off the strut cartridge and away from the spring.
6) Next you will need to grind the strut to clearance the CV boot and keep it from rubbing on the strut
once the lift kit is installed.
