I am ready to buy a lift kit and having read a lot of reviews of the Racer Tech kit and while they had a few issues they responded really well and I was pretty sure that was the way I was going to go. However before I do I wanted to see if there were any of you who were running the Super ATV 2.5" kit?

Specifically I would like to know how much it changed the ride and if you are seeing any axle issues and also the overall quality of the kit.

Any comments are appreciated.

I'm running the superatv lift. Don't have any complaints about it. Haven't broke any axles due to the lift. Super fast shipping, somewhat of an easy install. My ride is smoother than my first lift I had on which was the puck lift. But as stated before I'm a pretty easy rider most of the time. No jumping, vary rarely hual ass. I just kick back, drink cold beer, listen to my music and just cruise and chill!!!

Hi Conroe Kid...just wondering of you installed your new Super ATV Arched A arms and if so how did the install go and what are your first impressions of them?

I ordered mine to my friends vacation place in Montana and he brought them up for me so will be getting them this week and then hopefully install before the weekend.

Let me know and thanks.

I installed the front arms on mine and can tell you that it was a huge upgraded in quality over stock. I also installed the super Dave a arm bushings as the factory ones are junk. I haven't gotten a chance to hit trails yet but, I have no doubt it will be everything I wanted. I am able to turn the preloaded down so the ride should improve as well.

I'm getting ready to order some arched a arms . is it true that the super ATV arms will not work with OEM ball joints

Just installed the 2.5" lift last weekend. The install was easy, and the lift looks awesome. We purchased at the Windrock Jamboree, along with the SuperATV power steering . The lift looks great. Thanks SuperATV.

Definitely looks like you gained a lot of clearance vs. the stock A-arms, and strength too I'm assuming... Curious if the 1.5" forward offset is noticeable when riding, or is it primarily for front tire to body clearance...? Is the width the same on the front now with the new A-arms or did you gain some width too...?

I primarily did it for the tire clearance. You can for sure tell the tires are further forward. the driver axle pulled out over the weekend on my ride. Not sure if it was un-seated during install and I didn't notice or if it extended too far. I will re-seat it this week and take it for a ride once I replace the belt I shredded this weekend as well .lol the width didn't change. The wheels are offset more than factory though

Was thinking of ordering Race Tec 2.5 lift kit and springs for a 2014 Commander Ltd . I take it the A arms are from another company? I like the stance on the pictures posted and was wondering how it would work with stock axle length and stock air suspension? Also if my tires and rim combination would work.

Ya think its time to spend some more money. Probably do the Race Tec 2" lift with their new springs, believe there 2.5 springs? Most all the riding I do is trails in Michigan. I'm going to hit maybe Brimstone or one of the south riding area's
