High Lifter Lift Kit for Polaris Magnum 500 (99-03) - Manual (Page 3)

Rear Lift
1) Place jack under ATV at the rear of the bottom skid plate (NOT THE DIFFERENTIAL) or in the center of
the ATV, and lift until the weight is off the rear suspension. Be careful to secure the ATV properly so as not
to fall off the jack.
2) Disconnect the bottom of the rear shock from the differential. (The lift can be installed with the top of the
shock on, but this can make it more difficult to align the lift bracket.)
3) After removing the shock, jack the ATV up an additional 1”-2”.
4) Note: (All references to the side of the ATV are as if you are sitting on the ATV). Remove the Factory bolt
directly behind the shock mount, on the axle, from the differential housing.
5) Place bracket “E” on the left side of the shock mount (short edge pointing upwards) on the axle, then spacer
“C” on the right side of the differential housing, and then on the right side of spacer “C” place the bottom
(rounded edge) of bracket “D”. Secure the brackets to the shock mount with the Factory Bolt and Nut.
6) Secure the rear bolt hole on bracket “E” to the differential with a new 8mm x 50mm Bolt and 8mm Washer.
7) Last, place bracket “F” between the bottom of the shock eyelet ears, place bracket “E” between the inside
of the bottom of the shock eyelet and bracket “F”, then place the top (squared end) of bracket “C” on the
outside of the bottom of the shock eyelet ears. Secure the brackets with the 10mm x 65mm Bolt and 10mm
nut.
8) Tighten all nuts and bolts to Factory specifications.
9) Install the wheels, torque wheel lug nuts to manufacturer’s specifications, lower and remove jack.
10) Check for clearance problems or misalignment.
