Features
- TAKE ON THE MUD IN COMFORT: Special suspension calibrations including stiffer spring rates help maintain an elevated 13.5” of ground clearance, avoiding obstacles and maintaining traction in deep ruts while still delivering a level of comfort, control and smooth ride Sportsman is known for.
- EXTREME DURABILITY: Extreme mud performance can be found throughout including an industry-first handle-bar mounted grab-bar for off-camber control, fortified arched A-arms, recovery ready 3,500 lb winch and a heavy-duty front bumper.
- MUD SPECIFIC TIRES: Designed by the mud pros at High Lifter, these factory installed 29.5” Outlaw 2 Tires feature a tread purpose-built for mud riding.
- HIGH CLEARANCE A-ARMS: The arched design increases ground clearance to an incredible 13.5” to keep the vehicle from getting high-centered in ruts and other hidden obstacles.
- HIGH-MOUNT AIR AND COOLING: Optimum mud performance is achieved by ensuring fresh clean air is reaching the engine, clutches and radiator for maximum power and cooling.
